[AT] Sad news

[kgw]

Spencer and Listers,

I am not much of a praying man, but in this case I am.  I can only try 
to imagine the pain that Steve and his family are trying to deal with.

I hope that some of the more creative minds of this community can come 
up with some type of appropriate means of demonstrating our feelings to 
the family; this is something in which I would very much like to 
participate and I think it would be greatly appropriate for the ATIS 
group to respond to as a group, as a community, as an extended family.

Perhaps if you could simply arrange a PayPal account which would channel 
donations directly to the scholarship fund; this way, ATIS donations 
would show as such.

STEVE DESERVES OUR SUPPORT, FOLKS.  I think that a donation to a cause 
important to him in his son's name is a good way to do this, along with 
our prayers.
