Benefit T-Shirt sale at the Expo for Jack Berry!

Dreamer · Jul 20, 2011

Hey everyone, just a heads up for our forum members.

I know by now everyone knows of Jack Berry's health issues which have necessitated his coming off the road.

We have had several requests on how we can help. As stated in another post, his van will be on display at the Expo, with volunteers showing it, in an effort to find a buyer.

Also, to help defray his expenses for doctors visits, accessibility help, etc, OTM and Lawrence McCord have donated 50 limited edition Expedite Expo 2011 T-shirts which will be available in the front lobby of the Expo.

These shirts will be available for a minimum donation of $10.00 with 100% of the proceeds going to Jack. If you can donate more, that would be awesome... again, 100% will go to Jack to help with his transportation and accessibility expenses during this time.

We would also need a couple volunteers to sell them at the table, not for long, as I'm sure they'll sell out quick.

Thank you all in advance for helping us help Jack!

This is just another small way we want to show our appreciation for him.

Dale or OVM my step Dad, the owner of Mayfield Express said to call the office at 330-723-5100 with a Com Check and he will donate $100.00 to the cause. Dave ( Bruno as you know him) said ever little bit helps. I don't know Mr. Berry but he sounds like a great person since everyone wants to help him.

I just want to thank you all for your selflessness in assisting us. You have had me in tears a number of times.
It is weird being on the receiving end, and difficult to ask. You have all just stepped up and made life so much better for us, with your caring and your deeds. I do not have sufficient words to write what it means.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Gracie: some of us don't know much, but we know Jack [and you, too!] Which means we know that if the shoe were on the other foot, both of you would be front & center when help is needed.
And we know very well just how hard it is to accept help, [harder than saying "I was wrong" or "I'm sorry" or even "Let's get married!"] because we're all independent kinds of people - so thank you, for letting us do the little bit that we could.

Thanks again to Jenny for selling at the table, and to Steve (Wolfman68) and Dennis (Chefdennis) for hustling the leftover smalls! Who'd a thunk it would be so hard to sell SMALL tshirts at a trucker show LOL.

Jenny · Jul 26, 2011

No problem. it was the least i could do.

Who ordered small T-shirts for a trucking show

The simple fact is that one of our own is in need...i have no doubt that if the situation were flipped, Jack and Gracie would be right there to do whatever they could....

So as Jenny said, helping in whatever way we can, is the least we can do...

And again, Thanks to everyone that opened the hearts and wallets to donate, buy t-shirts and rattle tickets....your generousity is greatly appreciated...
