A Blade Runner Down
Hello! This GoFundME was set up for Artist, Writer, and Youtuber Gerry Kissell, after a fire destroyed his studio.
On Wednesday, July 7th, 2021, a fire spread through the upper floor of the house he was staying in, in Joplin, Missouri. Between fire, smoke and water damage, everything in the studio, and office he shared with his wife, was ruined and or destroyed.
"I couldn't talk about it yet, as I was just too upset. But we lost pretty much everything in a house fire yesterday morning, including all my art and video equipment, as well as all my art prints, original prints of my comics, and tee-shirts. All gone. Ugh" From a post, Gerry made on Facebook and Twitter
"I especially want to thank my good friend, and fellow YouTuber, FatSteven Seagal, who set this GoFundMe campaign up for me. I don't know how much we will get from it, but, I am grateful for whatever comes in, to help me try to replace and rebuild what was lost." From a post Gerry made on Facebook and Twitter
