A couple of dad's friends ended up setting up a GoFundMe on my behalf, since like 5 people mentioned it before, here's the link: https://www.gofundme.com/f/funeral-expense-and-his-beloved-son And there it is! A fool and his money Where is the obituary? have we seen that yet? Whenever I come here to say someone important in my life has died, I add an obit and never ask for money Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

edjr 5,563 Posted August 30, 2021 I used to run the DNDL right here at FFT. Gary J. LANCE was a long standing member of the league. He lived in Indiana in 2010 He sent me money via paypal. I have his name and home address at that time. No obit to be found. His family didn't care enough to post an obit, but cared enough to post at FFT. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is a 22 year old kid that is struggling for money and has no guidance in how to proceed since his father just died and he is practically a kid. I should not be shocked, but i am shocked at the callous nature of people towards someone who just lost his father. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

haloman30 16 Posted August 30, 2021 The obituary will be available soon. I just got back from the funeral home a bit ago, and we did a bunch of papers, as well as picked a photo and wrote the obituary. Will be happy to share here once they put it up on their site.
