Gofundme for Panther Fan

[PntherPryd]

I hesitated to post this but then I thought of my Friend Jeff Erickson's son.  I grew up with this guy but lost track of him 30 + years ago.  When you younger guys get old you'll understand.  Another friend was a drummer in a band and a group of us helped where we could with the bands (#sloppyseconds) but Jeff made it his career to be a roadie on the southern Rock circuit.  The dude could tell stories for hours.  He wasn't well off but whatever cash he had he spent on his son and making memories at Panther and Hurricane games.  Cancer just took him from us a few days after taking his mom so his son (who I've never met but hope to meet Saturday) is in need of some help with burial expenses.  

Our drummer best bud was a local celeb, he died 3 years ago and we still have "Cuz-Fest" in ILM to celebrate his life but Jeff was a rockstar in his own right!  Godspeed E!

Pryd is one of the originals around here, so if you can help out his cause do so. One of the good guys. Sorry to hear about your friend.

Damn. I remember Cuz, and going to Four Winds/The Monk to see Stormz.

Heck, I used to live next to Polar Bear.

So sorry to hear this. I'll commit to giving some. The Huddle showed fantastic support a couple years ago when I had to ask for the same thing. Least I could do is return the favor. 

Love and prayers man. Keep Pounding

Thanks JR, you're ok for an eagle fan!  

If anyone can give, great.  But I posted it more for my benefit and it struck me how his son remembered the Panther games the most.  They weren't rich but they made a hell of a lot of memories.... so I guess they were rich!

I grew up with Kevin(Cuz) and Jeff and when you see friends moving on like that you learn to appreciate your time here.

Brak, I spent a lot of time at the Monk back in the day.  And Jimbo's afterward.  Small world!

Sorry for your loss Pryd. :(

I will share this on my Facebook feed as well. I hope it helps.
