From Judy Beaver @ ARCOR,posted from another site:
ATTENTION ALL:
When I opened the message that there was a PAYPAL I almost cried again. But, to be sure there was no mistake I contacted John Wallace to verify his donation to the Scott Ricker Fund. This was the reply I got from John:

"$500.00 is correct. That could be my nephew who races motocross. Please announce it and challenge more to match it. Scott is going to need a lot more than this."

So there it is, John Wallace has laid down the challenge. There are not enough words or the words to Thank John.

We all take so much for granted in our daily lives, not thinking what a split second can do to change our lives.

I also might add, while I do not know Scotts personal finaces, I have heard that he has insurance and that the premium is around $400 a month. John has paid a insurance premium.

I know many of you cannot make the Scott Ricker race at Fox Mountain, but surely, some can afford to "enter" the race, even though they can't make it?? It's only $15 and it can add up.
