This undated photo provided by the Purcell family shows Dorothy "Dot" Purcell, center, and her husband Jim with many of their children and grandchildren. Dot Purcell wanted her body to go to science and she ended up at the Indiana University School of Medicine-Northwest Campus in Gary, Ind., which has an unusual program where medical students often meet the families of the donors they dissect in gross anatomy. Though reluctant at first, some of Purcell's family members, including her husband, ended up meeting medical student Lucas Buchler and developing a friendship with him and a few other students.
