Help Me Help The Wilson Family!

As many of you may know, I recently started a gofundme page called "Help Me Help Others with Scars" (gofundme.com/ConcealScars). This request was created to help me raise money to manufacture a product that I developed to help conceal scars and minimize insecurities. WELL, after yesterday's events (9/19/15), my focus has completely changed and I'll tell you why.
On September 5th, my neighbor, Philip Wilson died suddenly. He was not in the best of health, but this was definitely and unexpected event. Visiting family and spending time with the grandkids one day and gone the next. September 5th was supposed to be a joyous day of celebration for the family because not only was it Labor Day weekend, but it was also his daughter's birthday. The family made the decision to delay the services and have them on the same day that would have been Mr. Wilson's 6oth birthday - September 19th.
On September 19th, while the family was celebrating his life and laying him to rest, his home, the family home, caught on fire. From the time the family was notified, to the time they began arriving at the home, the fire had quickly spread throghout the 2nd floor of the home and it is said to have caused an estimated $200,000 in damages. The cause of the fire is still unknown.
So of course, my Help Me Help Others focus has changed. Not only have my neighbors lost a loved one, they have lost their home and I can only imagine the countless memories that may have been lost, as well.
Please Help Me Help Others by sharing this gofundme page with ALL of your Friends/Family/Co-workers, etc. to help the Wilson family rebuild and rebound as much of they possibly can. Your thoughts and prayers for the family are also requested.
Thank you,
Donnese
