Should we help this guy out ???

[Feste]

Does anyone know this member or can they verify the situation. If so I say those of us who can chip in ten bucks and help this guy out....
I'll write the first check if someone can tell me where to send it...

PayPal can send to anyone with a valid email address. I'm willing to go that route.

My only question is whether the guy is legit or not... I don't think I would share that kind of info. in a Classified ad, but I am more than willing to give him the benefit of the doubt. Has anyone dealt with him before???  Of course we could just take it on faith to.... what do you think? I could try and find out if he has  a paypal account.

[roknroll]

I was thinking the same thing myself, feste...We are a very generous forum, and it would be more than easy to take advantage of that.

[Feste]

Okay, he seems to be on the up and up... just read his prior posts... anyone that excited  about a Larrivee has got to be legit!
I have his email but I am not sure I can post it... if anyone wants it send me an email

Perhaps a forum adminstrator should weigh in here... can we do this???

I just sent him $10 towards his son's recovery... if we can get 100 member to chip in he can keep his guitar!!!
Kick it in Larrivee lovers!! :GRN>

I only know Busker from this forum but he and I started e-mailing each other a while ago before he got his Larrivee. A couple of weeks ago the e-mails stopped. I wondered why he stopped communicating. I figured he was just busy with his new son and new guitar. Today I got an e-mail from him about his son. Very sad. I can't even imagine what they're going through. Count me in toward helping him keep his guitar even though it sounds like any and all money he gets will go toward his son's care.

How do we set this up?

And along with whatever financial help we can give let's make sure Busker and his family are in our prayers.

Busker & family certainly have my best wishes.  haven't heard from the forum administrator, Zac in some time now so we probably can't go that route but i'm sure we can work out something sooner than latter.

If everyone that wishes to help Busker out simply paypals a donation using his email ( available by clicking on his user name) there should be no problems that I can see.
No need for a a lot of organization, just send him a donation through paypal.  I am sure every waking moment he is agonizing over this illness, perhaps we can ease the burden a bit.

[Busker]

Hello everyone, I'm VERY touched by everyones LOVING THOGUHTS and PRAYERS....

I can understand anyone not really trusting a forum post, BUT not regarding something so serious and plus I KNOW I'm on the up and up.

If anyone wants to make a donation I had to start a pay-pal account because a couple NEW friends made a contribution.

My email is scarznstarz@comcast.net

My family and my I really appreciate your prayers and kind words

THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH.....

[Busker]

I would like to Thank the couple of guys that made a donation to my family. I REALLY appreciate EVERYTHING you've done and all the offers of an open ear whenever I need to talk means the world to me. It really shows how much of a family we really are here.

THANK YOU ALL VERY MUCH,
Jay

If you can help Busker out... let's keep it going... a little from each of us would go along way here...

Here is an update on Busker's son. Surgery was performed for a Medulloblastoma tumor and from what I understand his recovery is going well. Perhaps Busker will give us more information when he gets time. Of course his son is not out the woods because the cancer may have spread.  Financially they are having a very tough time of it with no medical insurance. For those of you who are parents you probably went through tough spots like this at one point or another and know what a huge lift a helping hand can be. If we can come together as a forum and help this family out, well, what a great thing for us to be able to do!!! I propose $10 for those who can do the paypal thing... simply click on Buskers name to access his email address.

Malaysian also wants to bless you my friend. :UND> with prayer and paypal  :GRN> :GRN>
