Title: Flower collection for Rick & Chrystal
Post by: TentHunteR on July 15, 2014, 04:11:28 PM: As you may be aware, Rick's (nepas) mother in law passed away yesterday afternoon. Many of us have known Rick for several years, so we've setup a collection for flowers to go to Rick & his wife Chrystal as a way to pay our respect.

Please do not feel obligated, but if you would like to donate, you can send donations via PayPal.

Log into your PayPal account, and click, "Send Money to a Friend."

The money will be sent to: toomanywords101@yahoo.com

Enter the amount you would like to donate, and click next.

On the next page please type: "Flowers for Chrystal" where it says, "add a note," so that the is funds are designated properly.

Be assured 100% of this will go to Rick & Chrystal.

Please note the transaction will show the money was sent to "Hi Tech Construction Products."

We collected almost enough for flowers for both families, and LTBBQ ( the World Headquaters ;) ;D ) chipped in some - and we were able to send out some nice plants as both families were more favorable to living plants as opposed to cut flowers - we asked them their preference. These will be delivered to the Whites in Canada and the Burdens in Florida at their residences. YOUR participation has made this possible, and I am humbled anew everytime you folks step up for a friend in need. May God bless you all - as he has me, by the friendship of you folks. :)

Post by: nepas on July 16, 2014, 07:11:55 PM: To all the members of this forum: This is Ricks wife, Chrystal. I want to thank each and every one of you from the bottom of our hearts how much we appreciate all the love you have shown to me and my family. This has been a long journey not only for my mom and I but for Rick also. He spent many countless hours with the puppies while I was not at his side. Mom was very happy that he supported me the way he did. Rick and I cannot wait to travel to meet up with the wonderful people we chat with on these forums. The ones we have already met are like family to us. There are not enough "Thanks" for all the love and out pouring of concern that has been sent our way over the last 7 1/2 months. Again, Thanks to ALL of you. Chrystal and Rick Burden
