We have all been shocked and saddened with the passing of MD at far too early an age. We have all posted our feelings, thoughts and memories of the Faither of the Forum on that thread and I do not want to take any posts away from that thread. The reason for my post is to express my hearyfelt thanks to the generosity and kindness of the posters on this forum.
But a special thank you to Stevie for organising the fund - I appreciate that this has been extremely hard for him as he is one of the few of us who met Michael, as he kindly visited him bearing gifts (of Stella) and to see if he needing any help. Thanks to boab who initially did some investigating to find out the whereabouts of MD. And thanks to Dill who had developed a very special friendship with MD and had to share the awful news. Thanks to Larry & Niall (plus David) for writing such beautiful articles in remembrance.
I know we are a fairly small community on here compared to other places like KDS but I personally prefer that as we look out for each other. In the past Stevie has helped organise boaxes for posters who are going through difficulties and we have generously and willingly contributed.
There are a number of posters who are currently experiencing some very difficult times in their personal lives (I won't draw attention to them all here but you will know a fair few of them). You are in our thoughts and are not alone. Please do not be afraid to ask for help or tell us you are struggling (you can PM to avoid the lurkers).
Thanks to all the posters who have written so many wonderful pieces in the last few days and who have generously donated so money during these trying and uncertain financial times. Just thanks. YNWA.
