Passing It Foreward And Or Paying It Back

[cudarunner]

Hello to All,

There is a general theme here at SRP that I really like and that is Members helping Members. And often times that help is by giving or loaning equipment.

Five years ago I was blessed by being introduced to Micheal Horn. We met at a Spokane Washington Meet; 'Mike' was a very quite guy but very likeable. When we met he was recovering from a kidney transplant with the kidney donated by his sister Jen.

Mike recently passed away. Apparently not long after he and Jen had celebrated the Five Year Anniversary of the transplant.

Jen registered here at SRP and posted the notice of his death.

To make a long story short Jen has donated all of Mike's equipment to me to disperse to those that I feel would appreciate it and remember that Mike had treasured it.

Trust me, I will be extremely 'Picky' as to who gets what as I've been burned in the past by giving; only to find that the recipient either just dropped out of sight or had more than enough money to purchase their own equipment.

With that said, they are in the vast minority as most have been very appreciative and in fact have sent me razors, hones, strops or such to pass along.

Non of Mikes razors, strops soap dishes etc are anything 'Fancy' or 'Custom' but they are all good solid 'tools'.

The Reason That I'm Posting This Thread Is This:

Please share your experiences with having had something passed forward or of you paying it back.
