You are the best!

I am thrilled beyond words at the generosity of my brothers and sisters here at KawaNow and at TX Vroc! Today I had the pleasure of transferring, are you ready for this?

$2431.42

to the representative of Chuck "txcwdancer" Burt's family in order to assist them with the costs involved with Chuck's funeral. This came from you, the fine, fine people. I am filled with an overwhelming sense of pride at your actions, your love and your kindness. I have no doubt that Chuck is smiling down on all of you, touched by your actions.

Thank you my friends, my family. You are the best! When I told the staff, here is part of BD's response:

I pray the Lord is proud of eveyone's care and committment of one of his fallen children and their family. As we all stand before God, on the day of our judgement, we can defend our lives. God bless you all. I have never been prouder....

I couldn't agree more BD!

That is awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh, geeze guys, I am really impressed too! What a wonderful gesture, and I know a lot of folks who contributed had never even met Chuck. Maybe there is something to this "motorcycle brotherhood" business afterall. ;)

rlfaubion · 07-27-2008, 08:59 PM

Excellent! As it should be eh?..... I'm glad and thank whoever originally thought the best use of the donations was to provide it to the family, rather than buying flowers, cards, etc. Great Job to everyone.

I am proud and humbled to be a small part of this group of wonderful people!

Wow, that is simply amazing!

**Cajunrider** · 07-27-2008, 10:27 PM

What an honor to be part of such a great group of people. Your generosity is truly overwhelming. Our crowns of glory will shine a little more when we meet our maker face to face. Chuck will remind us of this when we get together for that wonderful ride on the golden streets. Great job....

jussmatt · 07-27-2008, 10:31 PM

That's AMAZING!!! I too am proud to be a KawaNow & TXVROC member. I only hope and pray that it will ease some of his family's burdens.... Words can't describe how amazing yall are!

donguer · 07-28-2008, 05:21 AM

It's nice to know my small donation has helped to make someone else's life easier.
I agree that the money is best given to the family to defer cost.
I hope everyone will understand when I say I Don't want to do this again for a very long time.

Please ride safe, always assume they don't see you, life comes at you from 360 degrees.

I looked up Chuck's son here in Pocatello. Finally found his name in an obit online. Michael is his name. Went over to his home this evening and was told that Michael is still in Texas for his fathers funeral but should be back late Sunday. That money will go a long way to helping family members with travel expenses. Way to go people. God bless you all.

That is totally AWESOME! Way to go -- KawaNOW!
