Bossie of lbgs safaris had his home hit by a tornado today. Messed up his home and property pretty bad. Just want guys to know as he is a great guy and will be off the site for a few days as he cleans up.

Wishing you well buddy and wish I was there to help you get fixed up.

Sorry to hear that. You didn't mention it, so I presume no one was hurt?

 

[billc]

The good news is no one was hurt just a lot of damage from wind and water that got in all over.

 

[ActionBob]

He sent me pictures. Lost his roof and 5 inches of rain in about half an hour! Lost almost everthing he owns. Nobody hurt, thank God! Sounds like no insurance... Don't know what we can do but I'd like to help somehow.

His wife looks really devastated.

 

[billc]

Yeah the pictures showed enough to me that I know he could use some help. I wish there was more I could help him with but not sure how to help him with being so far away.

 

[gillettehunter]

Sounds like a real mess. Mother nature can be a real bitch. Can we take up a donation to help him out? Happy to add prayers too. Bruce

 

[billc]

going to look into what we can do to help him out. Not sure yet but will keep people posted on ideas.

 

[tarbe]

Does he have PayPal? Does that even work in RSA? Maybe something similar?

How can we make it 5 clicks easy to send him something? There has to be a way!

If a bunch of us could each send $20 or $50, it would add up quick.

We need someone under 50 and tech savvy to tell us how to do this.

You can make a "Gofundme" page. From what I've heard about go fund me, it's a legit way of getting donations. Just an idea.

I don't want to get to far ahead with out getting the go ahead from Jerome on using this thread to maybe set up something to help bossie out. I just want to help and get him back on his feet after this bad news. I am sure if even we all do alittle it will help some and take some pressure off of him and his family.

 

[Nyati]

[jeff]
