Hey All

I Talked with Brad Gaunt Yesterday. He got to see his father
yesterday for the first time since the accident. He said he looked
way better than he expected. And he’s doing very well in my opinion.

Sierra, his niece, was able to donate her lung’s, Heart and liver
and two of those was locally.

He is wanting to be involved in any ride or fund raiser. BUT he does
not want to do it this Sat.11th
because the funeral is that morning

Visitation at Langsford Funeral Home in lee’s summit

Funeral at Raytown Christain Church 6108 Blue Ridge

Also, the next weekend the 18th-19th is his anniversary and that’s
out. He said an evening would be OK (hot)or any time other than those
dates.

He has some fund raising beneficiary idea’s also. His Mother had no
problem financially with the
funeral and such but his brother (father of Sierra) could use some
help it sounds like and he also mention Midwest Transplant Org. He
wasn’t sure of the exact name.

He brought in a picture and the obituary to the shop yesterday.

I will try to finalize what he would like to see done and let you
and others know. Sara from the Acme Bike Shop was planning on riding
out this Sat and putting ghost bikes out but she said she would wait
to here.

I told him we would wait until after the weekend to contact him
again and discuss more.

Forward this to what ever groups your in and Maybe we can get a big
number of us to show up to the visitation or Funeral. I’m hitting the
visitation for sure. Not sure about the funeral.
