For those of you who haven't seen the other threads, Bob aka Xaero3953 passed away early in the morning on feb 28th as a result of fighting cancer and heart problems among other things.
I think it would be nice for all of us to join in and pitch a couple bucks over for the purchase of a funeral memorial.... be it a wreath, flowers, dontation to cancer society, etc.
I haven't been able to get a hold of Jamie. She's our only connection at this point. I have left her a message to call me so hopefully I can learn more about the situation, and figure out more details about the funeral and where to send the donation too. Heck, I don't even know Bob's last name. But what I do know is that he was great to have around here, and he will be greatly missed. Having something for the wake/funeral from all of us hopefully will touch his family the way that he touched all of us here at the HondaSwap family.
For the time being, please send all funds to me via paypal. Please put in the subject "in memory of Bob" or something to that extent so I can keep track of the money coming in.
$3-$5 should do it. Don't feel obligated to send more, but I won't stop you. If we get 20 people in on this, which i think we will be able to with no problem, we can purchase/ship a decent arrangement for the ceremonies.
I will start the fund with my donation of $50. I'll even eat the paypal fees so the full amount you donate goes towards the fund.
If for some reason we can't get this together in time because we don't know where to send it, all funds will be donated to the American Cancer Society, or another national non-profit of the sort, In his memory.
