Someone dear to a long-time friend of mine -- I won't go into the details, but let's just say that Six Degrees of (my old garage band) The Weasels kinda sums it up -- just had his house burn down around him.
Let that sink in for a second. I mean, I can't even begin to guess how horrible it must be to deal with that.
The good news is he got out physically unscathed. The bad news is literally everything else you could imagine, including the loss of a collection of vintage guitars and (most heartbreakingly) his beloved 10 year old cat Gracie.
In sum, he is now homeless and emotionally devastated.
That being the case, I am asking my readers to please share the story above and the Go Fund Me link below to your social media accounts, even if you can't yourself donate.
Helping Carl rebuild after losing everything in a house fire
In either case, it would be, as we Red Sea pedestrians refer to it, a mitzvah.
Thanks in advance, kids.
See you with happier stuff on Monday.

Glad to pass along and contribute Steve. Had it happen to a business I worked for. Company did not come back from it. Tell Carl we've got his back.
ReplyDeleteThank you SOOOO much.
DeleteFor the charitably inclined out there, there is also a gofund me campaign for the 2 pilots tragically killed at La Guardia airport there several days ago.
ReplyDeleteWill pass it along to all my current band mates and let him know we feel his loss and are with him.
ReplyDeleteThat's really appreciated -- thanks.
