Default Benefit to help raise funds to pay for my fathers funeral

As many of you know, my father passed away on Friday June 24th. We will be holding a benefit in his name on Sunday July 3rd to help raise money to help cover funeral costs. He did not carry any kind of life insurance, so the proceeds will go to the costs of the funeral. There will be a 50/50 raffle, donations available and an auction. If you would like to donate anything to be auctioned off, you can either bring it to the event or I can pick it up anytime this week. There will be food at the benefit and everyone is welcome. If you can not make it to the benefit, and would like to donate money, you can paypal it to myself. My paypal email address is cliffc4453@msn.com . My brother and I would like to thank everyone that has offered there condolences and that has shown support to ourselves and to our family. We hope to see everyone at the benefit.

The benefit will be held at Lenny's Bar. It is located at 718 W Dr Martin Luther King Blvd Seffner, FL 33584. The event will start at noon on Sunday July 3rd. Even if you can not donate anything for the auction, or give donations we would love to have everyone out there to eat food and celebrate the life of my father.

Sorry about the loss of your father.

FYI - PayPal has strict requirements and guidelines re: accepting donations. You may wanna double check w/that before they lock up your funds and causes you more heartache and delays. I had a similar problem with a cancer benefit for my mother w/them.
