Thanks! He gave me advise once about buying silver coins and I always enjoyed his entertaining posts. A very special guy!
I think it is wonderful that a memorial fund was set up to help the loved ones of one of our own TSPers. I have been on here for about 8 yrs and Burrocrat is certainly one of the members whose comments made an indelible mark on this site, to the entertainment and enrichment of the Tsp community. I've made my donation in hopes his family will know that he had a far-reaching positive impact. May God bless him and his family.

We're nearing our $1500 goal and I think it should be hit today, so I will hopefully get it sent to Jacob by tomorrow.
Thanks again, everybody!

JP, I'm so sorry for your loss. Forgive me as I stammer thru this...
My wife and I adopted a child a few years ago, and that takes up a ton of my time, but one of my guilty pleasures was reading Matt's posts. He was so funny, and truly had a great writing skill that I was always envious of. He just seemed like a great guy and I wish I had met him. You know, I would have never been able to say this had it not been for this board, and the community. I'm no where near most of the folks who post here, so this "place or ours" afforded me the opportunity to banter, laugh and enjoy Matt. Some of my favorites was when he did little rhymes when he told us when he was going in or out of the market.
My deepest condolences to you and the rest of Matt's family.
Thank You jpcavin. I am sure that wasn't easy to write. Thanks for giving burrocrat's extended family some information.
PO
That was the final amount collected. I plan on mailing the funds to Jacob on Tuesday, but I have not heard back from him after emailing him earlier to confirm the address, and that he'll be there to receive it.
Thanks!

I'm totally shocked.
Burro was definitely one of a kind & we will miss him.
May the Lord strengthen & comfort you and his family during this difficult time
Thank you for sharing this news JP!
Well, It's hard to find the words to express my condolences. Burrocrat was one of a kind for sure. He was a man's man! Never met him, although I enjoyed his wit, and personality immensely! So Burrocrat, I'm not going to say good bye. I'll just say, see ya later. Rest in Peace my friend!
All the best to his family
Thanks JP for posting this thread. Burro was truly one of a kind. So sorry for your loss ... and my condolences to his family, friends and other loved ones. While burro and I didn't often see eye-to-eye on the Politics forum, it was always obvious to me that he was a really good person, and also one of the sharpest I've ever encountered in a forum, not to mention funny as hell. It was hard not to have great respect for him despite our political differences. I will definitely miss his presence here at TSPTalk.
