I agree with Wayne, keep it low key.

I am in favor so long as it is low key. For an example, if a "hat" were near
the meeting room door, and a short announcement were made at the meeting.

I have set Dave Coshow's Board and Announce email to Vacation, so he won't
see this.
As you know, Dave was in a serious accident a few weeks ago. He is doing
better. All the broken bones have now been set. He has a skin graft
operation set for Thursday. Hopefully that is the last surgical procedures.
To say the least this has been a pretty traumatic and expensive event. Dave
is retired, and this kind of hit wasn't in the budget. I am not requesting
that EVAC itself make a donation, but I am suggesting that we "pass the hat"
at the next meeting. Individuals can donate as they wish. I can tell you it
will make a big difference to bridge the initial expenses not covered by
insurance. (most of us have Medicare, and the out of pocket expenses do
mount up). Dave Douglass was a passenger in the car, and does not have the
same expenses or long term issues that Dave Coshow does I am suggesting the
money is for Dave Coshow.
Thanks - I would appreciate emails in response to this to confirm this is a
proper thing to do, or to express any concerns.
Dave Coshow is in the Mission Palms of Mesa Health and Rehabilitation center
at 6458 E Broadway Rd (Power and Broadway) in Room 207
His cell is 480-244-8997 <tel:480-244-8997>
Since his wife has a muscular disease and is not mobile, his family is taking
care of her. That means that Dave doesn't have a lot of visitors, and might
appreciate a cheer up.
