$ 475.- and counting.

This and the HBT-video from last week is what makes us proud to be part of this community.

I hope this will show Kevin's family how he was part of a community that cares, even though most of us probably didn't personally know him.

I will raise my glass to a fallen brother..

Use the "Donate" portion of the page linked to specify how much you want to donate. It's paypal from there.

Go to the person's Profile and look for the Donate link.
 
Go it and it's done. I couldn't help myself, I had to fix the odd change amount while I was at it.

I'm glad you did- otherwise, I'd have to go back in and do it myself. It was still an "even" number when I donated or else I would have given the odd cents. Sometimes it sucks being anal.

I hope we can help his family out- and let them know that Kevin meant something to us. I know that you are all my "imaginary friends" but we really are a community as well, and really do care for each other. Kevin will definitely be missed by us- but the hole left for his family will be huge.

I will keep his family in my thoughts and prayers as they go through this difficult time, and I'm sure you all will too. It's gratifying to see that we've been able to give a meaningful financial gift to his family, and hopefully it can help them somewhat in this very difficult time.
 
This is quite possibly the coolest gesture of kindness via a bunch of pseudo-strangers I've ever seen!

Keith, when is the donation period going to end? Perhaps edit the date into the OP.
 
Done. But, eh, now the dollar amount is odd, so someone'll have to fix that.

[Edit: heh...and some kind soul has made the cents amount odd again too, seconds after I 'fixed' it. ;) Nice work!]
 
Bah, looks like I missed making it even by seconds! Time for someone else to give it a go

I made it uneven, but it was literally all I was able to give... :eek:
 
The longer it stays uneven, the more people will try to fix it. :)
 
Woot,

$609.88

Lets keep it going,

I wish I had more to give,

Kevin was very supportive of the WHMBP and a wonderful asset to HBT.
His playful banter will be very missed

I've never brewed an ESB but would be honored to do so in memory of a fellow HBT commrade. It's crazy to think that he was about the same age as me. Such a terrible and tragic loss for everyone that he knew.
 
PayPal question. Are there any fees involved with our donations?

It would be nice to hit this again as mood and money change,
but would hate to be making PayPal fatter.:mad:
 
I am not sure if PayPal charges a fee or not. I would suspect yes but, if they provide a service then why is that bad?

$625.00 in a single day. WooT!

What a great place this is.

I'm not sure what the fees are. I do know it's cheap though. I could be wrong, but I think it's on a percentage basis, so several small donations would be fine. (Don't quote me on this though!!)
 
The fee (for a business account) for a $0.01-to-$3000.00 payment is 2.9% plus 30 cents per transaction. It's not really enough to worry about, IMO.
 
The obit posted by Laura specifically asks that, instead of flowers, donations be made to an educational trust for his boys.

In lieu of flowers, donations for his son's education to the Kevin Dennis Memorial Trust, 7655 W. Dempster, Niles, IL 60714 preferred.

Boy is she going to be pleasantly surprised.
