this is the toughest thing I've ever dealt with, round 2

My mom passed away unexpectedly Thursday night back in Washington state. Plane tickets are more expensive than me driving and I'm taking most of this month off of work to drive the xb from north Carolina back to Washington. Todd has started taking donations on my behalf and any and every bit helps. The funds will be going towards my trip to/from for gas/food and to try to help with mom's cremation. The following is todd's post on fb for me.


"im asking a favor a fellow mini truckers mother has passed away
like all of us he his tight on funds to get home to be with his family
he is almost 3 thousand miles away he is a great guy and true friend
im asking all of our minitruck bruthas to help get him home

every penny will go to him
and every penny will help
love you leland and im sorry for your loss

Terribly sorry about your loss, I cant imagine how it feels but I am going to send 15 dollars right now to help out a little. Its not much but if others can contribute hopefully it will make this a little easier on you.

I sent $20. Hope that helps. From a fellow minitrucker that loves his mommy.

My condolences. I saw the post on FB last night and paypal'd what I could afford.

I really appreciate al the help i can get. My mom and i had been trying to plan out me coming to visit before he dad passes away, and the scenario is still the same, the person changed, but financially i really wasn't in a place that i could do it without help

Sorry for your loss...

Todd, money sent via paypal...please make sure Leland receives it before he leaves.

Todd will be Paypaling everything he collects thru his Paypal to my girlfriends account before i leave. Cortnye will be able to deposit it into my account so i have access to it while I'm heading back to the west coast. Todd has lifted a huge weight off my shoulders by doing this for me. I can't thank everyone enough for the support Todd and i have seen so far. It really shows that the mini truck community is still about helping family. We're all family whether we like it or not

Hang in there Leland, I know what your going through, and you need your family right now, so I have PP'ed Todd $50.00 on your behalf. Be safe, and try to enjoy some time with your family.

Thank you Todd for letting us all know about this, as there are many of us that want to help a person in need, especially under these circumstances. I am on MazdaTrucking a lot more than I'm over here at bscene, but something told me to check the site out this morning, and now I know why!

My condolences to you and your family Leland, and be sure to fill us in on how your trip goes, we definitely want to see you make it there safely.

I will link this thread over on MazdaTrucking if it hasn't already been done yet.......take care man.

Cliff

Done.

Family comes first and foremost. Hopefully the $100 I sent and others donations will get you there and back. Take your time and travel safely - it's a long drive. Dan
