I did it and you can too!

Help John Mckusick Overcome Health and Financial Struggles

I went to the go fund me page and donated a little bit. Nothing earth shattering but I did it in honour of Bob Gatenby.
I thought that might be a way for him to be remembered.
I can't find anywhere on the GFM page to let ppl know that your donation is a memorial donation to honour Bob.
But, I donated anyway.

IF you can donate, maybe you could just add to this thread or not. Your choice.

Anyhoo
best wishes John.

I was on the phone with another DU member who pointed me to your post.
Thank you so much for your kind message, it really means so much to be held in that esteem.
Bob was such a transformative person in that he literally guaranteed every DU reader had at least one wonderful start to their day every week.
I can only hope to reach any one individual way with a similar impact that SCE had for so many.
I will be sending a DUmail shortly so please keep an eye out for it.
Thank you again Kesha,
Love, John

there was a way that a person could make a donation "in memory of" but GFM doesn't offer that option.
