A MEMBER IN NEED OF SUPPORT


Many of you know david_ten.  David has been a respected and knowledgeable member of this forum for some time.  His musical journey has taken him down an interesting and thoughtful pathway.  He has always been a gentleman with a positive thing to say. When other members were at life's end, it was David who reached out to them. 

I have had the privilege of getting to know David a bit outside the realm of this forum. Sadly, David's safety and home encountered some trying times with the recent devastating hurricane in New Orleans.  Fortunately, he and his family are safe. However, his home sustained significant damage.  Trying to move forward with limited water, food, gasoline, and no electric service has been difficult indeed.

Please offer David a word of encouragement and/or your prayers during this difficult time. I'm sure he would appreciate that.  Yet one more reminder of all that we have to be thankful for.

I just got a message from david_ten, thanking me for my kind words and telling me that while they have a long slog ahead of them, it could have been worse and that they’re going to be alright.

What a nice guy and I really do wish him all the best!

This is awful. Things can change so fast and we are virtually powerless vs nature. David has always replied to any post or question and is an asset to this community and I’m sure to his community at home as well. Wishing him, his family, and community the best. I did donate to relief funds but is there anything specific that could also help?
Got an email as well. We may try to get together when things settle down here.
secretguy kind thoughts for you and your family also.We've had some minor damage (thankfully!)from tornadoes up here in the midwest and I sort of can relate.Arranging for repairs is another type of nightmare when so many need help.Take care!
