Memorial Fund for Skinnyshrek (Lee Gerrard)

[turtlespeed 212]

Most of us here in Bonfire knew Skinny. He was one of the best ones.

As witty and lovable that he was, he didn't always have his head screwed on quite right.

The unfortunate truth, besides he is no longer with us, is that he had NO life insurance.

We are also putting together a page for parachutist, designing patches, and maybe stickers.

Any help you can give would be appreciated. The upcoming costs are going to take a pretty good chunk of change.

You can either send what you want to the Farm [1195 Grady Road . Rockmart, GA 30153] addressed to Skinnyshrek, ICO The Farm *** OR *** using Paypal just enter in the address "[email protected]"

***Please note that the checks should be made out to Brandy Gerrard***

Thanks Everyone.

Not a video peep, but done. I just wish I could do more.

I like coconuts. You can break them open and they smell like ladies lying in the sun!

Micro, Do you think it is okay if i ask you to change your sigline? Just kind of hard when kids are around to read ANY post you write.

I'm obviously not thinking everything completely through.

Thanks, Chris!

Please make the checks out to Brandy Gerrard, but address the envelopes to Skinnyshrek.

That way the donations remain anonymous.

Thank you all very much.

Turtle, As Bigway said can those of us who are in other countries donate with our credit cards,
IE; direct to an account number.

Gone fishing

The account that we set up is supposed to.

chris: of course there are... no problem with that. however, in times past these kind of threads are typically littered with replies about "check in the mail" or "paypal sent" or whatever. there's something to be said for anonymous gifters but there's also something to be said for the friendly supportive influence of knowing that others have given that can persuade others to give to worthy causes as well.

squeak, a pissing contest is not was i was getting at y'all. it's a shame that such a perception has to even be voiced here. this is about supporting our brother and his wife.

sorry if my post was misconstrued by anyone

agreed. It dosent matter if you say "check the mail" or "paypal sent."

The point is to give our support to someone we all liked in the skyjumping community.

For that matter "check the mail" because my "papyal payment" was sent.

RIP Lee Gerrard aka skinneyshrek, we're gona miss you, you post whore!!!

The celebration of our beloved Skinnyshrek (Lee) will be at the Farm the weekend of 12/15 & 12/16. We will be honored to have Lee's parents along with his sister, brother in-law along with his uncle. Please come and celebrate a man who knew how to live. An ash dive will be made during this time.

That is sort of uncertain. Any more details, please? Some people may not be able to be there for two days.

Get it now, folks. There is NO WAY in hell, that you fockers will keep me off this dive. Nope, no way, no how.

My reality and yours are quite different.

Jello-Jay has the exact amount, but I believe we raised $1000 in a charity Texas Holdem Game.

I'll be there this Saturday as well btw.

I believe it was something like $620 from 18 poker players. More may have been added by others. Good turnout folks!
Oh and yes, I pushed all in with 2 7 offsuit, and lost. Now that hand didn't knock me out, but sent me on the way out...
