PAUL SCHEIRER MEMORIAL TRUST ---------------------------- Most of you know that Paul Scheirer (philliephan)passed away early on Monday, December 11, 2000. Paul was a man of unique talents and an astounding breadth of warm friendships, based in large part on his willingness to help out wherever he saw a need. His was an unusually generous and easy voice, and those of us who knew him directly for some years can confirm that impression for those whose acquaintance was through the Net. He was as real as it seemed.
The sheer number of his admirers, now mourners, was brought home to those who were able to attend his crowded memorial service Friday on 12/15 or who have browsed the RotoGuru bulletin boards and other email messages. In all these contexts, speakers commonly emphasized what a paramount family man Paul was, as a friend to his wife, and a deeply attached father to their daughter Kathryn, 14, and son Jim, 12. It is because of the depth of these attachments and the disruptive suddenness of his death that those close to the family have suggested establishing a scholarship fund for the benefit of Kathryn and Jim. Kathryn and Jim share an upbringing and a heritage that deserve the best opportunity to develop. We would like to help.
The information for those wishing to donate to this trust is below. In order to provide a memorial list of peoples' respects for the family, we request that if you give to the trust, please forward an email just mentioning that fact and including your name (as you would want it to appear on a document) and address (either mailing address or email address) to corner@erols.com.
Checks should be made out to James & Kathryn Scheirer. The account number of 703208616 should be noted in the memo portion of the check and then mailed to:
Suntrust Bank 4250 John Marr Dr. Annandale, VA. 22003
If you have contributed, or plan to contribute, to another charity or to either of the churches that were referenced earlier, please send your name and the charity/church that you supported to corner@erols.com so that you may appear of the memorial list as well.
Thank you.
Additionaly if you find it in your heart to contribute to another organization please take the time to send your name and address along with the organization you supported to corner@erols.com so that you may be included in the list of contributors.

A quick note to say thank you to those people that have already made contributions in philliephan's memory. I have now received emails from 4 people from the RotoGuru bulletin board (two of whom contributed to the kids' trust fund and two of whom contributed to the church).
By the way, just what does BUTT mean (that's one I've never heard of)?

BUTT = Back Up To Top.
The threads are sorted by most recent post, so it is a way of getting it back to the top.
I assume I am one of the four who you received a check for. It was mailed to Perm Dude and hopefully gets forwarded to the applicable recipient. It can go to any fund you guys select.

I've been too busy with Christmas stuff to acknowlege the money received so far, but I've received a number of contributions so far, including yours, Jeff. I'll send e-mail confirmations for the others as I get them so you know they were received.

I leave the board for a few months and everything starts falling apart.
Make it known that my moment of silence (in prayer) has been made for philliephan.
I'm proud of everyone here rallying together in his memory.

I just read all of the old posts. I saw an idea about the 28Jan Caps/Flyers game. Think I'll go, as it's just a 15 minute subway ride from here.

the gettogether at the game on the 28th has been cancelled because the game was sold out and they could not get the tickets that were needed

A Caps game sold out? THX for the info philyboy, I'll try to get in anyway.

yes because it is so close to philly that all the flyers fans go and buy the tickets. I was at a game down there once when they played the flyers and the cheers were louder when the flyers scored than when the caps scored.

'Tis the season to remember.
Can anyone in the know confirm that the trust fund information is the same?

Thanks Mario!
We had a nice gathering of people at lunch today to remember Paul. I was the only one from the boards, but that didn't matter -- as long as we keep his spirit alive!
I assume the trust fund information is the same. I'll try to find out an post the answer here.

I'm glad you went Jumpball. You were among the few that knew Paul by a name other than philliephan. When you get the trust information, could you inquire about the Paul's kids? It would be nice if Kathryn and the kids knew that Paul is actively remembered on these boards.

GREENBELT!! Drop me an email. There's a Caps game against the Flyers on Monday March 10. I know we might not get jr. out that night (although i will ask his mom!), but maybe the rest of us could go!! There's also a couple weekend games (2/9, 2/22 and 3/2) that could be targeted too. Let me know!
