USMB Member in Need...

[flacaltenn]

An old time member of USMB, Hortysir, is in a desperate situation. He's a good guy. A voice of reason and Navy vet.. Is a member of USMB since 2010, but hasn't been here for about a year struggling with his wife's illness.

Finances caught up with him. It's a temporary situation until he finds new job that understands his time priorities. Came to our attention thru another USMB member who knows him well.. I've was in contact with Hortysir yesterday and verified the fund drive..

Whether you know him from the old days or you're new to USMB, we sometimes DO ask folks to help out if you can. The fundraising link is at ---

Since we've compromised his real identity by doing this emergency funds request, he'll probably get a brand new Board Name when he comes back.. But I'm sure he'll thank you...

I believe (from his FB page) the picture on the GFMe is of his wife. I know that he has friends here from all political pedigrees.. A great gentleman...

My best wishes and prayers are coming your way. Let us all remember when we think of others and give what we can, we get it back in time for "paying it forward."

If you read this thread, and it's too far down in the listings, do me a favor and just bump it to keep it up at the top for a couple days... Thanks....

Wow folks.. That was cool to watch.. In the time it took me to empty my Inbox and alerts, looks like USMB kicked in close to $500...

This place is the best.. It's worth the grey hairs and the headaches....

God bless him and his wife and our prayers and a donation will be with him and his family.

Hard to believe that all that bullshit with politics today, the shit we pay for and an american like him struggles to care for his family. Horseshit.
This country sucks.
Good luck my man!
If I donated to anonymous internet people, I would give all I could to him.
