He would like to make up a photo album for the family. I also have heard of some fundraisers that might be happening there this weekend, as well as in the near future. If anyone brings donations to the BEA party, I'll get them to the family Sunday. Ron H. "Just when you think you have all of the answers...I change the questions!" "Rowdy" Roddy Piper

He went to the doctors several times, had different meds, throat infections, then he just seemed to break down. What killed him in the end was complications of pneumonia, but i think his body and his immune system had been so weakened that he couldn't fight it off.

The loss of loved ones and family is never easy but when it is someone so young with what we think is a lifetime of experiences ahead of them it is even tougher.....Prayers out to the family and friends.
