Ace195 · 12-13-2003, 11:22 PM

Sadly I won't be here at game tavern for a while. A dear friend of mine's child died from the damned new strain of flu. So I'm going to console him and help him raise the money to bury her. I do however have one question anyone have any Ideas on how to raise money for something like this any help would be greatly appreciated.. I will be checking this while at work.. Thankyou all very much

My sympathy for you and your friend, I'm really sorry. As for fundraising, you could write letters out to all your friend's relatives and friends explaining the situation and ask them for donations. Anyway, don't worry about anything here, we'll be waiting for you when you return so just tend to your friend.

Really sorry to hear that, Ace. My sympathy to you and your friend.

And like GM said, dont worry about things at GT, we'll be here when you get back. Just take care of your friend.

I got a call from my friend this morning and a company who saw what happened on the news decided to donate money to him.. :P there's a start

Damn, USA need insurances like in Holland..

Here we don't have to worry about stuff like that.

Condolenses....

Uh, we have life insurance here. Im just assuming this person didnt have any. For instance, if I die, my family gets $50,000

No questions asked.

Yes, but then if you want to keep that insurance, your premiums go through the roof.

Dude what's that got to do with it!

Someone died and you start being a weenie with 'I got a bit sick too!'

No offense, but it just sounded stupid.

Happydude did you give me -rep?
I don't think you did, so someone else did it. Under your name.
Pathetic, really.
