As per instruction from Dave, the Fire Fund has been shut down. Today I had the money wired to Dave's bank account. Needless to say, he was both thrilled and humbled by everyone's generosity. Dave continues to be amazed by the amount of money this fund raised, and truly touched by everyone who donated. It will be put to good use in helping him to find and furnish a new apartment in Seattle, as he begins a new chapter in his life.
Many thanks to everyone who donated. You've proven that in the midst of all the animosity that has been produced in certain circles...
Love will still prevail.
