We’ve had two FReepers suggest a trust fund for the Snow family. I thought long and hard about setting up an FR activism thread to see if someone would volunteer to take the lead to set up a trust fund and contributions process for the family of Tony Snow.

My concern is that a new thread would be more apt to attract attention of unscrupulous persons who would join FR with the intent to cause harm.

Instead, I am sending out this Snowflake ping to see if anyone has the ability to help get this up and running.

My opinion is that we should contact someone in DC who might know if a fund has already been set up. Perhaps the funeral home or his church would know.

I hesitate to set one up here because of the creepy people who are always looking about. It would be much better if someone else could set up the fund and we could just post the address.

Another thing, saveliberty. I would bet cash money that Cheney and Bush have put some money in a fund for those kids.

Good idea SL.

I made an additional donation to FR in Tony’s name but will gladly step up to the plate again for a trust fund for the family.

I bet there is a fund somewhere already and if someone finds out where please ping me.

Thanks,
Chuck

That’s a GREAT idea, SL....I don’t have a clue about setting one up, but more than eager to participate with whatever I can spare to help his family.

I would gladly contribute to such a fund.

This morning when I awoke, my first thought was of that promo that his radio show used to use....

The very deep-voiced man:
“What would we all do without the Snow Man?” My second thought was that today we have to begin to learn.

I always listened to the show on the webstream, (when it wasn’t broken) and that show had the very best bumper music.

What a man, what a life, what an inspiration. Tony will be so sorely missed.

Afraid I don’t have the ability to set it up, but I sure do to contribute!

This is a noble undertaking. I hope you get the help you
get. I know nothing of this sort of thing, but will be
ready to help out with a donation.

Please do be careful. There are many hateful people out there!

I am pretty sure, also, that Tony, as a loving husband and
father, provided well for his dear family. I am certain that
they would give all that up to just have him back. :(

I will be the first person to kick in..however, why do you think that he hasn’t made provisions for his family?
