A mid-state man has donated his 100th pint of blood.
January is National Blood Donor Month; so Marvin Coach made the milestone donation Friday.
Coach has been donating since 1960 when he was 16-years-old.
His father, who was also a life-time donor, had to sign off on his first donation since he wasn't an adult yet!
"To me, I get a lot of satisfaction knowing there is someone out there somewhere maybe benefiting from something I've given. My personal slogan is 'blood donation is a gift straight from the heart,'" said Coach.
Coach is a volunteer nurse for the Red Cross and also volunteers in their Public Affairs Department.
