As most of us know, our friend Barry Allen (also known as @TheFlash here at Cadillac Forums) is fighting pancreatic cancer. A few of us here huddled just before Christmas and agreed that Cadillac people don't just stand around when one of our friends is in trouble. So, we reached out to Barry and offered him a few options. Barry asked us to channel our support for him to the American Cancer Society and "fight this terrible disease in the name of Cadillac Forums". A noble man furthering a noble cause.

So, friends, I am now including all of you in the venture to do just that. Please consider clicking on the one of the following links and help fight this terrible disease.

Donate to the American Cancer Society

Canadian Cancer Society (for those who reside in north of the border)

If you're comfortable with doing so, please shoot me a DM or post here that you've joined this fight.

Thank you

Dan

Fantastic stuff!

I am touched by the response here and remarks sent via private message. CF has some very fine, caring and generous people.

C'mon, gentlemen, this is a time to step up. All of us can go out and drop $50 on a special bottle or whatever. This is bigger than all of us.

I have had private messages from donors. I myself donated a case of Blanton's equivalent to the Canadian cause. Understandably, they don't accept bottles. Even full ones...

As mentioned, there's likely a fair number of blokes what have pitched in and not posted. That's one cause and effort that has impacted literally EVERY family out there.

Some years after my sister was lost to cancer at the age of 21, I opined to my father that "only the good die young" and he retorted that "I guess that means that I'll be here for a while". He was right as it turns out.

I saved an additional $65 on my Rockauto order yesterday thanks to a fellow forum member providing me with a discount code (shout out to NorthernSRX). I'll be donating that $65 to The Flash Fund when I quit traveling the southeast and settle down for a while.

For those of us who live in Ontario, let's fight cancer and get a chance to win a 2023 Escalade!

Ontario Motor Sales: Cadillac For Cancer

Yours truly just bought a ticket in honour of our dear friend Barry. If I win, I will sell one of my cars and donate the proceeds to fighting cancer in Canada and the US.
