Woodie's Memorial Fund

Hello, my name is Storm. On March 7, 2007 my very dear and close friend Ryan (Woodie) Wood passed away. Ryan was a very talented rap artist who produced and recorded countless albulms and compilations and was loved by very many people. Ryan and I had several conversations where he stated to me that even though he did not live there any more, Antioch, California was his home, and if anything ever happend to him, he wanted to return there. In 2016, myself, along with several other friends he grew up with, started saving money so we could get a memorial placed for him in Antioch. It took almost a year to make this happen but we did and were very happy because we finally had a place we could go to remember and honor him.  Around April 20th of this year the memorial stone was taken by someone and this left us devastated as we simply could not afford to buy another to replace it. We are hoping to raise enough money to purchase another memorial but this time something bigger and more permanent so this does not happen again. The goal is an approximation based on the previous purchase and expenditures used for the first one. The minute we are able to make this happen this account will be terminated so nobody contributes unnecessarily. Our goal is to only right what was wronged nothing else. I know there are a lot of shady people out there and I have no problem offering any needed proof of identity or purchases made from the previous memorial or the future one.  Please feel free to email me and I will contact you as soon as possible and answer any questions you may have. Thank you for anything you can offer, even $1 helps.
All contributions will go directly to replacing the memorial and nothing else.
Storm
