I want to sincerely thank all the members of this wonderful club and forum. I recently announced that I was selling my entire, extensive Weber grill and accessory collection. I have recently been diagnosed with Advanced stage 4 Liver and Colon Cancer and have been told by my doctors that I have very little time remaining. I am the 8th person in my family to get Cancer, none have survived.
Consequently, I am selling everything to raise money for upcoming funeral expenses and to spare my wife the burden of having to dispose of these items after my demise. I will be posting items regularly until everything is sold or I am dead (whichever comes first?). If you see something I have posted for sale, please feel free to purchase it if it's something you feel you can use. It will help me and my family tremendously. Once again, thanks to everyone who has responded with well wishes and support. God bless all of you and our community!

@ramsfan, I am extremely saddened to hear of your situation. Though we have never met, I've purchased items from you before and so I know you're an exemplary member of the WKC community. Thank you for sharing. You're in my thoughts.

Sorry to hear this and y'all will be in my prayers. Do you have a pay pal ? I would like to make a donation to help you and your family . Heart breaking knowing you're worried about things like funeral costs with what time you have left.

I've added you & your family into the prayers we say nightly with the kids. In another post, you mentioned your age & it struck me because, basically, you are likely my "birth year" WKC member. So sorry for you & yours.

Damn dude, I'm sorry to hear this news, @ramsfan. You've been an integral part of WKC since the beginning and you should know that you've touched so many people from our little corner of the internet. Take care, and please keep us updated.

I am so sorry to hear this. I don't even know you, and I'm sick to my stomach. I realize it's an honorable thing to sell your lot to cover expenses, but if you (or someone you know) were to set up a GoFundMe to cover the expenses, I'm sure the WKC community would step up to help.

May God's hand guide you through this time. This is only part of the Universe's plan. Death is not an end, but a beginning. We don't really know much about it, but keep the faith and we will all meet up again for a cook.
Thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Very sorry to hear this terrible news, @ramsfan. I don't know you, but we not only share this Weber passion, but colon cancer as well. I was lucky....may your final days be as peaceful as possible.
