Mya Stone Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 Hey everyone, I'm loathe to say it's time to do another one of these. The last one I spearheaded was for EHK's memorial, where we raised enough to get not only an amazing display at the wake/funeral but also a $1500 donation to the White Sox Foundation, something I'm still proud we did to this day. (i realize not a lot of people know me, but I assure you, I've been around a long, long time.) This time it's for Bonesy. I'm asking we raise enough for a donation to the VA in Palo Alto, where he was hospitalized in 2014). His sister just informed me the family is not having a service, as John was not a religious man. Yet I still think it's incredibly important to raise money to donate to the VA in his name, and give the family a plaque/certificate in his honor. If you would like to donate, i ask that you PayPal me: [email protected], sending to friends and family. I'll update when funds start coming in. (I realize setting up something like a GoFund Me would be a good way of handling it, but I've dealt with them in the past and don't care for the 3% they take for themselves.) All money raised will be put towards John's memorial donation (honestly, I feel this would have made him strangely proud). In love, Mya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
