Database Creation
Most of the data gathered here about Covid-19 victims listed on this page came from the KHN & The Guardian "Lost on the Frontline" project database. Building our orphan children database requires following up with families to identify children qualified to apply for Bluebird Awards. We are collecting data from other reliable resources as well. Check here for verified USA data.

‘He truly had a heart of gold’
When planes crashed into the twin towers on 9/11, Don Beauchene went to New York to help clean up the rubble. When Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans in 2005, he got on a plane to help with the rescue.
And, after he and his wife had raised seven children, they decided to adopt four children in need and raise them instead of retiring.
"Don and Michelle shared six children until recently when they adopted four siblings, creating a family of 12. Survivng him are Brittany Hartzell (David) Danforth of Warren, Hillary (Brae) Hartzell of Leavittsburg, Daniel (Toni) Beauchene of Warren, Dustin Beauchene of Vienna, Madison Beauchene of Vienna, Raegan Evans of Niles, and London Beauchene, Brooklyn Beauchene, Lilliana Beauchene and Lucianna Beauchene still at home; grandchildren Alexis, Luca, Jaxon, Zayden and Brodee; a brother, Dr. Robert (Tiffany) Bogli of Cincinnati; a sister, Terry (Jathan) McKay of Louisiana; a brother, Tom Bogli of Tennessee; and a brother-in-law Tim O’Keefe of Leadville, Colo." ..

Ghana-born nurse made ‘a deep impact across the planet’
Last December, when Kojoh Atta visited his father’s home town in Offinso, Ghana, he arrived bearing gifts. His father, Bernard Atta, worked overtime at an Ohio prison so he could afford to send drums of clothing across the Atlantic.
Inside were sneakers, sandals and Ralph Lauren polos for cousins. “Always with stripes,” Kojoh said, “so the boys knew they were special.” His father’s generosity and his relatives’ regard for him made Kojoh realize “there are countless unsung heroes making a deep impact across the planet”.
As Covid-19 ravaged Ohio, Kojoh urged his father to leave work, worried about inadequate protective gear. Bernard refused, saying it was his duty to stay. (A prison spokesperson said that personal protective gear “… was, and continues to be available to staff.”)
After Bernard tested positive for Covid-19, he remained home, fearing the hospital bills. On 17 May, Kojoh awoke to a flurry of WhatsApp messages. His father died, leaving behind his wife, three other children and grandchildren.

Social worker was a pillar of her community
At the house where Claudia Boughman lived until she became ill, carefully scalloped rocks line the garden beds. Indoors at least a dozen jars are filled with rocks. Boughman picked them up on hikes, along roadsides and even joyously liberated them from loved ones’ backyards. Where some might see granite or sandstone, Boughman saw something beautiful. “Each rock was a memory of a place, an event, an experience,” her daughter, Jessica Celesnik, said.
Boughman came to social work in her 30s, having previously worked as a hairdresser at a nursing home and then as a nurse’s aide. She worked as an advocate for survivors of sexual assault and then returned to nursing facilities.
“It relieved her stress knowing she could help people,” Celesnik said.
As lockdown orders began, Boughman kept working but otherwise isolated. She didn’t knowingly work with Covid-19 patients, but when she died, 34 patients and 14 staff members at the facility had tested positive for the coronavirus.
New Dawn did not respond to a request for comment.

‘She always listened and never judged’
When Tina Reeves visited her grandchildren, music would blast from the car. Wale’s On Chill rang out: “Trying to hear all your problems, so I can lighten the load.”
“She loved her music,” said daughter Tiana Mohabir, “even though she had no rhythm for squat.”
Reeves had an ear for other people’s lives, though. Younger co-workers called her “Mother Advice”, Mohabir said. In interactions with prisoners and officers alike “she always listened”, Mohabir said, “and never judged”.
She called her three daughters daily, “checking in on all of us”, Mohabir added.
When Reeves started coughing in early April, Pickaway had already reported more than 1,500 cases of Covid-19.
“PPE [personal protective equipment] was, and continues to be, available to staff,” a prison spokesperson said. The family said their mother did not have access to adequate PPE.
Reeves was hospitalized with Covid-19 on 13 April. She called her daughter to ask her to take care of paying her utility, insurance and cable bills. “I didn’t think twice,” Mohabir said, “because I didn’t want them shut off when she got home.”
Within 24 hours, Reeves was intubated.

Mother of seven ‘never got to hold’ her newborn
As a cardiac care nurse in Ohio, Tawauna Averette had seen the devastation of Covid-19 on families. She said too many people were downplaying it, recalled her husband, Charles. A mother of six and pregnant again, she “wanted people to take it more seriously”.
Averette was a registered nurse for years at Kettering Health Network and called it her dream job. Around the end of October, Charles said three or four of the other nurses on her unit were infected with the killer virus.

In family of Buckeyes, two deaths in two months
Jeannie Danker lost her husband in January to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, better known as Lou Gehrig's disease. Two months later, Danker, a longtime employee of Ohio State, died of suspected complications from Covid-19.
Danker met her husband, John, in the radiology department at the university’s medical center. The couple were married for more than 30 years and had two daughters, who also attended Ohio State.
Danker spent her career at Ohio State’s on-campus medical center, which confirmed her death, and rose to be a top administrator in the radiology department. “She never missed an opportunity to help people learn, grow, and become better people and professionals,” according to a legacy.com memorial. “Her team and those who have worked with her describe her as caring, fair, and dedicated.”
Wexner’s chief executive officer, Dr Harold Paz, wrote in a separate post that Danker "infused her administrative role with determination, selflessness and a patient-first attitude".
Marti Leitch, the center’s media relations director, did not respond to questions from KHN and the Guardian and wrote in an email that the hospital was honoring the family’s request for privacy.

Cardiologist was unable to say goodbye to his family
Dr Asaf Dar felt it was his calling to continue working throughout the pandemic, according to Dr Mujjahid Abbas, his son-in-law. Dar rarely took vacation, and travelled among several hospitals to check on patients until the day he got sick. A lover of languages, he spoke Farsi and understood Arabic, Turkish and Hindi, in addition to his native Urdu and Punjabi. Abbas said he often employed his language skills to communicate with an array of patients.
Dar and his wife emigrated from their native Pakistan to the US in the 1970s and had four children, including Abbas’s wife, Syma. “He was like a father to me,” said Abbas, who lived nearby as Dar and often visited with his two young children.
Dar developed a fever in December and visited a local hospital where he had admitting privileges; he initially tested negative for Covid-19. A subsequent test came back positive, and Dar, struggling to breathe, was intubated in the middle of the night. He was unable to say goodbye to his family.
