    Donated what I could. I signed in today to ask Kit a question for the first time. Somehow wish I had not.
    I liked his helpful and friendly way of acting when online. I am sorry he will not be here anymore.

    Damn.

    I don't post on SS much. I clicked on this thread thinking that Kitrax had decided to move on from Sorcerers.net and his old life, and start afresh. This was the last thing I was expecting. It's like getting stomped on the face.

    I don't frequent Sorcerers enough to say that I knew Kitrax's online persona well, but I gathered enough to know that he was a pretty cool guy, the sort of dude I'd want to have a beer with. He was quite a character, and wasn't afraid to say what was on his mind.

    I also knew he was struggling with depression, but this is still a huge shock. It is so upsetting that someone of such character, and who had so much going for them, would be in so much pain to do this.

    Donation made. May I ask who the online persona is of the "Donation Coordinator"? I won't type out his full name here, in case he would prefer not to be identified. I do know the real names of several Board members, and so I know who it ISN'T in some cases, but just wondering...

    [​IMG] Thank you, everyone. So far we've managed to raise around $500 - a portion of this will be used to cover the cost of the flowers, while the rest will go towards covering the funeral expenses.

    Sir Bel handles the SP PayPal account.

    I'm willing to pay a small amount of money (being out of a job recently I can't miss too much...), but it takes some time to activate a PayPal account. About a week or so, it seems. Hopefully I can work something out in time.

    I'd also like to suggest another small thing that might be appreciated by the family. I think I'll PM someone about that, though.

    You don't need a Paypal account. If you click on the link it'll take you to a page where you can just input the amount you want to give then add your card details x

    Donated as well. I hope that we can somehow help ease the tragic burden his family must be facing.

    Seems cool. I'm a total nut though: Does that mean I need to have a Credit Card? Cause I don't have one... :s

    This is great! I'm sure more donations will come in. I know how much even a simple funeral costs so I am sure the family will appreciate the help as well as our condolences.

    I am very proud of Sorcerers Place.

    For those interested the funeral home, Jenkins-Soffe, has an on-line guest book. Simply click on the link and then choose "Obituaries" on the left of the page. You'll find Kit under Buzard, Aaron Joseph. At the top of the page you see Sign Guest Book.

    I hope this meets with everyone's approval. I composed the following for the card:
    I had 2 characters left I think :)

    I haven't gotten the email receipt yet, so I hope I didn't screw something up...
