I think we're going to set an initial cutoff of Monday evening at kickoff of the Bears/Packers game. That way I can get everything withdrawn to be in my checking account by Wednesday. I'm going to send the card & check by FedEx on Tuesday so it arrives on Christmas Eve.
I hope that's okay with everyone. If there are more donations after Monday, I would be happy to organize a second mailing.
I can't thank everyone enough for their generosity!
All you guys are truly AWESOME! What a great thing to do. After what I went thru with my daughter and wife and I can tell you the Mastin Family will be so thankful for what you are doing.
Here is my little contribution. The first person to send "GUMBYFAN" $25.00 via paypal for the MASTIN family will get the following four cards from me. I will pay the postage. Just PM me with your name and address and tell me that you sent the $25, I will confirm with GUMBYFAN and then off to the Post Office I go (unless this friggin snow continues here on Long Island ... in that case I will have to wait until Monday to send them.)

PSA ... just think how much revenue you get from the people on these boards ... then make your decision as to whether not you want to donate to this great cause ... I'm POSITIVE that your heart is in the right place and you will make us even more proud of the great effort CRAIG and the rest of the members have put forth!
MERRY CHRISTMAS and STAY HEALTHY!

Just for those who don't check PM's I am asking you to edit your post that includes my quote. Not looking to start a war and I don't want to take away from what my friend Craig is trying to do here. My mistake so let's move on.
Impressive job guys, i DO hope that PSA matches it; that would be a class move on their part. I have great empathy for his wife and kids and all the things they have gone through.
I applaud EVERYONES efforts in this matter, it is impressive indeed!
Hi all.... Here is the last PM I received from Tim... about this time period last year. I never knew that Tim was sick as he was focused on the care for his lovely wife, Erin and his children.
------------------------------
Danny,
I here you about the bubble mailers, my wife often wonders about that to, but not here lately. I will have an excuse though as we get close to Christmas. I will just tell her not to open anything because it might be for her. LOL Which technically is somewhat true. Thank you for helping me out. I took care of many medical bills with the last batch you bought from me, and this batch will help out with Christmas for her and the kids.
We have a MRI and a neurosurgeon appt. set for my wife on the 4th of Dec. so were keeping our fingers crossed that the radiation she went through in June killed off the tumor which is on her brain stem. Benign tumor, but the location cause bells palsy and permanent hearing loss in her left ear. Sorry to ramble, thought you might like to know what people like me spend there money on besides our awesome hobby.
As you have done before, you can pay paypal at erinstubby@netscape.com
I want to wish you and your family a Happy Holidays from me and my family.
Thank you Danny, Tim -----------------------------------

Gotta be proud of a bunch of strangers raising $2500 (and going!) for a family we don't know but can help through tough times.

I haven't been on the boards lately. I am sorry to hear about Tim. I made a few transactions with him over the last few years. God Bless his family.
I would like to make a contribution.... please post the PayPal address?
