Peep Memorial Fund updated: ($1,500+) CUT OFF is 4PM ET TODAY

[SBR_John]

Last week Carl 'Peep' Erickson a long time hall of fame poster passed away. He leaves behind a wife and school age children. His family needs our help.

Carl was an innovator in forumville and many of his concepts were adopted here and elsewhere.

He was 66 years old. Some of you will remember Peep from the SBR Bash a couple of years ago. He began his forumville run as the head mod at TheRx.

Peep's family must be enduring pain of an unimaginable level during this holiday season. Let's all come together and help ease that pain. For everyone that donates we will prepare an oversized card with the poster's name and a check in hopes that it will ease their suffering and show how many people cared and respected him.

For every point you donate in this thread SBR will add .10 cents to the Peep Memorial Fund. If you are from another forum or a non Pro you may donate with Paypal or Moneybookers. PM Lou for instructions. If you are non US you may buy points through the SBR Store at .07 and donate them in this thread at .10.(all rollover and fees will be waived)

Thank you for your kindness and donation. Transfer your points in this thread. Every point will be worth 10 cents to Peep's family.

As a non Pro you can donate 2 points a day until we close it out(that is the max a non Pro can transfer). If you want to donate more it would need to be cash. You can do so by PM'ing Lou to get Paypal or Moneybooker instructions. Both of those take ************(plastic).

very nice

[tanner40]

Nice call John. Keep it up posters.

When I tried to send points I got the massage "we could not award this user points"

[Blondie]

Excellent to see so many posters participating!

Hi Scorpion,

John touched on how Non-Pros can help donate in the below post:

God bless his entire family this holiday season and beyond.

[rm18]

Did his wife cashout all his online money thought he had a lot maybe?

[VegasInsider]

Gladly donated to this cause. Prayers are with his entire family

[Reload]

Nice organizing this so quickly, John. Can we have a Peep Memorial poker tournament also?

[MBENZ]

John,if we have FP points in the book can we transfer them plus our others?If not let me know so I can play a big dog and roll it for Peep.That's the way he liked it.

[wrongturn]

I have 60 FP also want to put it in good use. Any one has a lock for tonight's game? I will donate the winning.

[SBR_John]

Could I get a volunteer to add up the points and multiply it by .10? I'll update the paypal donations.

[griz]

[ThaddeusB]

Tossing in 100. Thanks for doing this John.

[ProfaneReality]

this is probably captain obvious, but is anyone helping his family locate possible funds in sportsbook accounts just in case he didnt leave instructions

[joeybagadonuts]

This is awesome. Lots of generous folks here.



I'd give all 100 pts I have but it only lets me do 2 at a time. Any way around this?

This is rediculous,there is another guy from Peeps with 750 and can't transfer either.You would think in a case like this SBR could come up with something to free up these points.

[Madison]

Condolences to the family as I'm at the age where unfortunately these events are becoming to common place.

Here's a challenge to you all. John I think a list of % of available pts donated when finished would tell us alot about the humanity/spiritual well being of our fellow SBR posters.

Give it up people!

20% here to date for me ... and John you have my permission to take it all if needed.

Best to all!

[BeerDog99]

Never had the pleasure but I bet he was a heck of a guy.

My condolences to the family.

[Bongo]

This has to be one of the best ideas. Kudos to SBR!
