'He had so much love and life to give': Boise family remembers son who died after being hit by car

The Chaffins chose to donate the 6-year-old’s organs in hopes of creating a bright spot for another family.

Organ donation is the greatest gift you can give on behalf of your loved one, to restore many lives & allow your loved one to live on in others. So very sorry for the tragic loss of your son. May God comfort the family at this time.

I would not have the strength to do an interview I'd be crying like a baby

That’s completely understandable. I’d do the same. I’m tearing up just watching this. The loss of a child is beyond devastating.

Parents look so familiar. Think I’ve met them before. What a horrible loss. James looks like he was such a sweet kid. Gone way too soon. So sorry for the loss. Hugs and prayers to his family and friends.❤❤❤❤

So very sorry for your loss 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@cynthiawilson5066]

?? That street looks to busy to let a child ride a bike on anyone else notice that?

[@nancyfarkas3592]

Exactly. Why is a child that young riding in the street

[@tlims1974a]

That was my thoughts as well! Why not a neighborhood sidewalk, why a busy highway/ intersection?! A young life gone too soon! RIP little man. ♥️🌻

[@ceciliapetrowsky2572]

I thought the same.

[@fever_spike]

Sincerest condolences to James’ family and loved ones at this difficult time. 🙏🏻♥️

[@bronwyn117]

[@cynthiawilson5066]

So Sad RIP SWEET JAMES

[@harpergrace5846]

I’m so sorry

[@keepingupwithkennedy2663]

I just imagine how much guilt I would feel for taking my child on a bike ride near traffic. But no one knows or expects these things will happen. I hope the family is doing okay and able to be at peace with the whole situation.

[@kristytouchet8362]

So sad may he rip :0(

[@oneperson5760]

[@girlee0303]

😢😢😢

[@esmenaicker1308]

How did a small boy know what to do. Shame man.

[@melissaahlers5615]

😢

[@adamantium4797]

Well obviously he did not have a lot of life to give.

[@Siouxsi-Sioux]

No tears?? Completely cold patents

[@lesliecurtis9099]

There probably in shock

[@stephmartin1148]

I have heard from many people who have lost loved ones that you can only cry so much and no more tears come. That’s probably the case here!!

[@nancyfarkas3592]

Just cause they aren’t crying doesn’t mean they are cold!

[@taniamonaghan2489]

What a horrible thing to say,you can only cry so much,they also would think that their beautiful son wouldn’t want to see them miserable.if you don’t have sympathy don’t comment

[@VeeNessa775]
