Hello,

I find myself needing to ask for help from my meteorite community. One
of my children have died. My daughter Sarah died last Sunday, she died
in her sleep from a complication with her prescription drugs and her
breathing just stopped. Hopefully she died without even knowing. Her
husband tried to resuscitate her. She was only 24 years old.

I find in very hard to work now, and all packages and such things will
be slow, but will go out as I can manage. There are many current
expenses that are beyond my ability at the moment and I am trying to
take care of 2 households for the time being. As well as all the expense
of funeral, living, and such for her extended family. It is a
devastating tragedy.

First, I am not asking for a direct donation. I would prefer you
purchase something from my shop. If there is nothing in my ebay store
that interests you, if you so desire, please by all means send a
donation to my paypal account. The paypal address is
mikewren at gilanet.com Please mark as Sarah Cottingham Jordan
Memorial Fund

In addition, I just wanted people to know why I will be slow in
answering any emails that have been sent to me concerning meteorites, or
meteorite business.


Thanks for Your Kind Consideration

Michael Cottingham
