I am going to bump this to keep it on top of the recent posts list...

Unfortunately, all of this came upon Zorgon fast, furious, and unexpected, so there was little time to make preparations or changes concerning his family and affairs...

each of you look deep within and find it within you to help in any way you can in their time of greatest loss and need...


We have lost the greatest researcher and most genuine human I have ever known...

Let us cherish his memory and preserve his works for all that seek his knowledge

   We are trying to work out some bucks to send.   My wife and I are 2 on 1 income so it takes a bit of doing, but it's coming soon.  We are trying to get $100.00 together.   It's not much but we hope it helps.   :)

Sadly, Mic, quite a few of us are disabled and making do on a fixed income, which is actually painful when there is such a great cause that needs our immediate attention yet there is nothing to be done until the payday arrives

My post was not aimed at the group here, I was referring more in general terms that I was disappointed that there was not more donations.  Between facebook friends, and his medieval group, family, and other internet connections, I just thought there would have been more.

Yes I am aware of that for many of this group, it is hard to make ends meet and I know everyone will do what they can.

very understood, Mic, and considering as many times as it has been shared on FB(139), what's going on? As many guests as we have every day, where is the response from them?

QuoteYes I am aware of that for many of this group, it is hard to make ends meet and I know everyone will do what they can.
Yes, hopefully so, and to me, actually posting something, anything, is a step in the right direction; if you can't donate to the cause, share knowledge, research, funny stories about Zorgon or details of events, condolences, or just say Hi...

We live in strange times, my friend  ::)

Title: Re: New gofundme for Zorgon's last expenses...
Post by: Shasta56 on July 21, 2019, 12:22:21 AM
Seeker is right.  Help is needed.  My understanding is that Ron's death was unexpected, which means nobody had been putting together a plan to deal with it.  I don't know how many people here have a Starbucks, fast food, or other habit, but if you do, can you skip your habit for one day, and put that money towards helping Ron's family with final expenses?

I knew another guy named Ron whose family didn't have a plan for his final expenses.  Most of them were just in denial, including him.  He meant something to me at one time, so I paid for his cremation.  The  daughter and grandkids that we shared, and I spent Labor Day weekend in Tulsa two years ago, because he lived in Oklahoma, and that's where he died.  We had enough respect for him and the other family members to show up, in every sense. 

I hope a few more people here will show up for Ron's  family, out of respect for who he was, and what he built here.

    Greetings, my wife and I have sent a gift card for a $100 dollars to the Las Vegas address a while back.  (The kind that work like cash.)  We have not received it back, so it seems to have made it.
    Being that Zogs daughter is running Peggy it should workout fine.  So if anybody is having trouble with the links or sites not taking there donations and can't get around it, sending to the Las Vegas address seems to work.  Maybe Katherine can let us know if they are getting all donations.  If you sent it to the Vegas address they get it all!  No tipping fee!

P.S.    My wife is having Hospice come out tomorrow to evaluate.  I have been taking care of her for the last few years but it's becoming above of my ability to do now as my health is also failing.  I will not be post anymore most likely!   To those of you who have been great Pegasus players a very large thank you and fond farewell.

I've already been bitch-slapped once in this thread for encouraging other visitors and members to help Ron's daughter with funeral costs and other expenses related to his passing. I expect to get bitch-slapped again now.

Considering the legacy Ron has left for us and others who have yet to discover it, I think the lack of support at this crucial time is absolutely disgraceful.

Examine your priorities here at the website Ron created and nurtured for years and ask yourself if you can spare the price of even a cup of crappy Starbucks coffee to help the daughter of the man who gave us this little university of wonderful, unusual things.

If you've been mining the gold here, consider helping Ron's daughter during this difficult time.

This is entirely my own post. Hold no one but me responsible for it.
