Richard Simpson Memorial Fund for Paula Trefun

Donation protected


I would like to start off by saying that I very much wanted to call this fundraiser:

"Admiral Oliver Franklin Doom's Memorial Cash Grab"

As that's probably the name my brother-in-law would prefer, but I decided to go in a more conservative direction for those that didn't know "Admiral Oliver Franklin Doom" as well as Richard Simpson.




The purpose of this fundraiser is to not only to help celebrate the life of Richard Simpson, but to help take care of his family in his absence. While Richard worked extremely hard to support himself and those he cared about.
Due to the unexpectedness of his passing,  a significant amount of strain and hardship has been passed to his wife of 12 years, Paula Simpson (Paula Trefun).

----
At this point I would like to believe Richard would tell me "to quit beating around the bush and just say he forgot to opt for life insurance like a dumdum." 
----



However to be fair, we all take the fragileness of life for granted.  So while Richard likely broke a few of Admiral Dooms Undeniable Rules of Life. His main priority would be to take care of his family. That's the side of him I knew best and the reason I'm creating this.  


Main Goals

1. Help his wife Paula manage finances that depended on two incomes, or in this case the help life insurance would have provided. 

2. Refer to above

3. Assist with memorial costs and other assorted funeral expenses.


Also, please visit Richard's Youtube channel and blog to help preserve his memory and creativity. Or if you just need a laugh.
