Most of you will know either his name or his site and quite
a few of you know his generosity of spirit. Bill Southern of Nuggetshooters (http://www.nuggetshooter.ipbhost.com/) is
a longtime member of the meteorite community.

?

I know him as a man who never passes up a chance to help
anyone who needs it. He has given to every one of my fundraisers and it's time
for help to come back his way.

?

Bill's wife of 27 years, Barb, has stage IV cancer that has
spread to her brain. She has had a lot of radiation therapy and most recently,
a second biopsy that bore grim news. Like so many, they don't have health
insurance and the medical bills are piling up. Without help, Bill could lose
everything trying to add days to Barb's life.

?

That's where you and I come in.

?

Bill and some really special friends have donated some
meteorite-related items for me to sell to raise money. They need help quickly
so please contact me off-list to purchase any of these OUTSTANDING offerings on
a first-come, first-served basis:
