Mya Stone Posted May 30, 2017 Author Share Posted May 30, 2017 Thank you everyone who has donated this far. We are now over $1000 with all money raised going to the Palo Alto VA. Just a reminder, this is going to stay up and running until Saturday, June 3. You still have plenty of time to contribute to this very worthy (and budget-starved) cause. If you'd like to, you can message me here on the board, Facebook, or PayPal me at [email protected]. Next weekend I will be contacting John's family and let them know what we've done as a community to honor him. You all awe and inspire me, and I am so grateful to be a part of this community.

Guy Kilmore Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 Donated. My board name is pretty close to my email name, ending in 1978. But I was able to drop a note with the donation. Thanks for spearheading this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mya Stone Posted May 30, 2017 Author Share Posted May 30, 2017 I need no thanks, guys. I just know in my heart this is the right thing, and right way to honor John. Truly. I realize not everyone has PayPal. If that is the case and you'd still like to donate, I also have a Venmo account (thanks to @Arbor Gold); if you'd rather use that my name is SarahElizRoberts. Some people have also used the Facebook messenger to send money; message me if you'd prefer that (you'd have to friend me, and be stuck reading all about my 9 and 5 year old). So far we're over $1500, and once again I am reminded of the amazingness and generosity of this community, the community I owe not only meeting my husband and having my two sons to, but having the honor of meeting a good deal of all of you, and if not meeting, being friends - and I am blown away. Thank you again, from the bottom of my heart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KiDisaster Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 I didn't know him, but it's still very touching to see the community come together like this. I'll be sending a contribution in his honor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lady narcissa Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 I'm not on facebook and I've had several awful experiences with paypal so I tend to be a paper check donation sort of person. If you wouldn't mind, I'd like to just send a check direct to the VA in Palo Alto from myself but reference that it comes from the same group and is in LoB's honor. Would that be okay? Also, I was looking at their website and I noticed under donations they list accepting paperback books. If people thought it was appropriate I was thinking of sending a set of the GOT paperbacks with my check. We wouldn't have known LoB but for these books.

Good to hear from you Blaine, just sorry it has to be for a sad occasion. Most people here I don't think would argue with "hanging in there" as an answer to your question, I know it goes for me. Hope you are doing well. 9 hours ago, lady narcissa said: I'm not on facebook and I've had several awful experiences with paypal so I tend to be a paper check donation sort of person.
