I just found out his baby died the other day :cry:

Maybe you all with a facebook account could send him a tell? He needs all the support now...

Yeah, I just saw that on a related thread. Maybe we can collaborate on something together as a DCC community to bring a bit of relief, I am just not sure what..

His last post was to the BH Facebook page, that I know of, and he indicated that he would be offline for a while.

The address on the BH website is

Brave Halfling Publishing
1221 S. 14th Street
Herrin, IL 62948

We could take a collection and send flowers, if no one has a better idea. I believe from previous posts of his that his office is a home office.

At a time like this, I know it would mean something to me that people cared enough to do something, even if it can't undo a loss. So, on Sunday, at 9 pm Toronto time, I'm going to send something to John and his family. The card will just be "We sympathize with your loss, and we want you to know that we are here for you. From your friends in the DCC community." Because, really, we are a community. Or we should be.

If you want to contribute, great. I'll be using PayPal, and what I send will be based on what I can afford. You can add to that amount by sending a donation to ravencrowking at hotmail dot com. Your donation will go to sending condolences, and no other purpose. Cut-off time is 8 pm Eastern Daylight Time. Any contribution, small or large, is welcome. There will be no list of contributors, because it is better if it comes from all of us, even those of us living paycheck to paycheck or who don't use paypal.

There. Spread the word. Let's get this done.

Thanks RC. I am in, maybe a lil pipeweed in the mail will be just the thing for a couple brave halflings grieving.

Thanks for organizing. Look for email from paypal.

Hi RCK:
Thanks for doing this. I sent over what I could via PayPal.

I hope John and his wife are doing okay. My thoughts are with them.

Done. Thank you for all of your support.

EDIT....Just got an email confirming delivery.

Thank you so much, guys. The entire family thanks you! I posted more thanks and a picture of the flowers on my blog this morning:

So sorry for your loss, John. As a father of 4, I just can't imagine the pain or how to assuage it for you.

Even if we cannot be there in person, we are there in spirit. We feel your loss, John.

We are a community, during the rough patches and during the times of grief. Take care of yourself and family, John. Let us know when you are back to operating speed and if we can help.

My wife and I are praying for you and your entire family.

We are so sorry for your loss.

May God give you strength and understanding.
