(I have pics I wanted to include but for some unknown reason, I can't upload now).

There are some very interesting stories associated with heart transplants. Some passionate memories and habits have been known to be passed along with the heart. The theory is that some of the nerve cells in the heart do record a few things, which are passed along with the transplant.
