+1 for a Fundraising meet...
"The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe. If you try it, you will be lonely often, and sometimes frightened. But no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself."
Rest easy, Leisa.
Sorry to hear about Leisa, she will always be remembered on I.A, my condolences go out to you and her family.
Keep your head up buddy.
She is in a better place now.

I don't know if this is an option but maybe D.O and whoever else has organized the
upcoming SofakingFresh meet could also designate it as a Leisa Memorial/Brett fundraising meet, seeing as how alot of ppl were planning on attending anyway.

+3 for a fundraising meet/meet in her memory
I didnt know you guys but this just wrenches my heart
I own a waterless car wash business. If I can get a few volunteers I am willing to do a fundraiser car wash to help with the expenses of the funeral or whatever other expenses that may help Brett and his family. I'll take care of the supplies.
REQUIREMENTS:
1.) We need a public place to hold the fundraiser (and permission from owners)
2.) We need a shaded area to wash vehicles as products need to be out of direct sunlight
3.) Responsible volunteers willing to sweat for free to raise money.
Let me know...

im sorry brett..but she will always be with you
FL
I'm obviously too far away to supply a good location, but I would be willing to come down and help out with this.Originally Posted by One_Bad_SHO
Sry to hear Brett, prayers out to all man. She only left the body suit she was put here with, but she's still here in spirit bro!
I'm so sorry Brett. My heart goes out to you!
I'd offer to do it at one of my lots but I'd rather it be like any other fundraiser car wash... with ppl holding signs to lure in ppl from the streets for "environmentally friendly" car washes. My wash bays are located in office buildings so my team members get a lot of regulars. For this to be successful we need a public lot where a lot of ppl drive by. Also, none of the volunteers will be uniformed, my business will not be represented. I am merely donating the supplies and will be there to wash cars and show the volunteers how to effectively use the waterless products.Originally Posted by 03RCode
So yeah... if we can find a lot (that has a shaded area) to wash cars near a street, we could get some cute IA girls with hand made signs on the street to lure ppl in. With 5-10 guys we can wash 3 or 4 cars every 15 minutes.
At the same time, it'd be a great idea to get someone out there with a bbq pit and perhaps a bake sale. That will increase revenue for the fundraiser, as the ppl will get hungry or thirsty while waiting for their cars.

Rest in Peace. Leisa

Same here
So IA, pull together and use your resources. A lot of you guys know people who own shops, people who manage shops or own land... etc etc. I'm sure getting volunteers is the easy part... as many of you have love for Leisa and Brett.
IA will supply the volunteers.
I will supply the supplies and organize/manage the fundraiser.
We need a location. A good location with busy intersections. Remember, its CRUCIAL that we have a shaded area to wash vehicles.
We also need bbq pits, coolers, etc etc. So anyone willing to help will need to pitch in some $ to buy meat, charcoal, beverages etc etc.
Great message Paul, thanks for taking a screen shot Ed. I wasn't at the computer at the time, but I sent up a prayer.
Great to see so many here to remember her:

I am willing to help out with anything that is needed. Just let me know.
"Drop 5 stacks on the makeup bag"
Details pls... last thing I wanna do is just show up somewhere and get run off by the cops because we don't have permission from the proper ppl. Let us know where so some other members can chime in.Originally Posted by Jaimecbr900
I'm fairly new to Atlanta so i'd like some of the members to discuss and come to a conclusion for a spot that would strategically ensure success.
Brett, my condolences and prayers go out to you and your family.![]()
I already contacted the owner, another IA member, and we have FULL permission right now.Originally Posted by One_Bad_SHO

We are going to need some attractive ladies to serve as sign holders, washers, cooks, somebody to be in charge of getting us the supplies we need, and plenty of cars we can park to attract customers.
I'm going to make another thread just dedicated to the car wash fund raiser as soon as we get thru everything else going on today. Today is about Brett and Leisa.

I know this is rather cliche but she IS in a better place. you may ask why, but its because of the type of person she was. i dont know either of you but thats my only explanation. she must have been so good that God needed her by his side.......
But No worries because i have faith that they're planning a huge Varsity meet for us when we all reconvene.
My heart goes out to you bro. this is just the internet but PLEASE accept my most sincere condolences.

R.I.P Leisa.. You was the mother I never met..
sorry man. i send my condolescence to you and your family.
i know its a hard time for you. keep it strong.
god bless both of you.
I know i have never met you or your wife but my condolences to you & your family in this tough time. I am at a loss for words right now.
I love you Leisa. Even though we never met you, were so fun to talk to online and such a wonderful wife. You were chill with her husband who even joked about lolis and who loves to joke around like a high school girl. Im really gonna miss you
Jamie, One bad SHO, I have 2 10x10 tents that you can use if needed. Depending on the time, i will make it out also. Im sure there are others that have the same tents too!
Yes it does, but worse case scenario.......see below....Originally Posted by One_Bad_SHO
