skybeergodd 0 #1 July 13, 2007 Hey all...I'm sure most of you remember that on July29th 2006 Quantum Leaps Twin Otter crashed and killed 6 of our friends. We had a skydiver wake and raised money for a parachutist memorial page and the money keeper apparently scammed us and pocketed the cash for himself... The friends deserve much better and they more than deserve a proper skydiver memorial, scammer be damned!! I am going to do what is needed to put that page memorial in parachutist even if I have to pay it all myself. So for the 1 year anniversery of the crash(even though I know it will take a while to appear in parachutist) I am asking for help. For anyone whoes life was touched by Scott, Rob, Robert, Dave,Melissa or Vicki please feel free to donate to their Parachutist memorial. If you use paypal you can send it to skyguy@charter.net and in the note or instruction section please put in there for Parachutist memorial and your name so I know who to give thr Props too later. If you want to use check please PM me and I'll give you my address. I'm called Parachutist and placing the order on July 30th... Even if you can't donate, just reply to this post in any way so it doesn't die. Any help in anyway is truely appreciated. Blue Skies and please keep this thread alive and post up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

jdthomas 0 #8 July 13, 2007 Thanks for the info and that sucks that someone stole the cash for the page. Talk about some bad karma coming that persons way! Christina and I are sending some support. Joewww.greenboxphotography.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jojo69 0 #9 July 13, 2007 I have never been to Quantum Leap. I never had the opportunity to meet these people. I do, however, feel a need to assist, I do not understand how anyone can be so desperate they feel it is alright to steal from the dead. Please beleive that there are strangers who, after reading the Incident reports, just want to honer the fallen. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FallinWoman 1 #10 July 14, 2007 How terrible that someone would steal this money! I did not know all the victims, but I made a jump with Scott and he flew me to altitude many times. These people deserve to be honored. ~Anne I'm a Doll!!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skybeergodd 0 #18 July 20, 2007 OK....Update for all....First off THANK-YOU all!!!!! I was overwhelmed by the donations and amount of well wishers and encouragement...Believe me when I say skydivers are not a group of people....Skydivers are a FAMILY. Again Thank-You all....I still am accepting donations but I've secured and paid for the inside back cover for the memorial. The page is being designed right now and will appear in the September issue of Parachutist...Please look it over and realize that our friends finally got their proper memorial published because of all your efforts....
