    Hi all,

    I am posting this for a close friend of mine who lost his life almost a week ago. He was only 25 and passed away from multiple brain aneurysms and strokes.

    His passing was so sudden and unexpected. Due to lots or surgeries and hospital stays the family is underwater with funding and is at risk of loosing a lot. No parent plans to be funding this kind of expense, especially after loosing a child. I cant begin to explain how deserving of help this family is, they are one of the kindest, well mannered, and helpful families I have ever met. They are always willing to lend a helping hand. I created a "GoFundMe" account for them to help fund some of the expenses, I'm just trying to help anyway possible.

    Dan was a huge truck enthusiast and built some of the most beautiful rigs. and also some of the most capable rigs. He was always willing to help others in there projects and provided great advice and help to many including myself. I knew I could always count on him for anything.

    He is actually the reason I joined TW. He told me it was a great place to get ideas when I first bought my Tacoma, and man was he right. I am posting the GoFundMe URL below. Any donations or any sharing helps. He was an amazing guy.

    I don't usually do these types of things. This is my first time, but I would do it again without question for his family. below are some pics of his rigs that he built from stock, and him helping a friend with welding, and then him.
