BANNED FOR NOT MAILING PRODUCTS PURCHASED | The Ella Fund I have talked to Aubrey on the phone and she is so very gratefull to everyone who has donated for the flowers and the frame. We both have talked and she and I have suggested that we keep the left over funds in a "memorial fund" I need to get everyones opinion on this. I don't want to be the only person to have access to this money, it will only go for flowers, stepping stone, or a memorial frame. We can also use this money for rescue if needed. I hope ADMIN allows me to post this, I don't want to get in any kind of trouble with YT, I love this site and would never want to gepordize myself. Thanks, Missy |

| My respect for Aubrey just grew by leaps and bounds. What a WOMAN of integrity! Since this is an opinion poll -- my opinion is: We should honor the wishes of the recipeint of the outpouring of love. I also want to send a HUGE THANK YOU to all you have done, Missy to help alleviate some of the heart ache -- what an Angel you are. |

| Great idea! I can't imagine that there would be any objections. With a fund, and God forbid we do have a loss/need, we could do something quicker than take the time to collect or go through PayPal on short notice. I think it's a great idea, but that's just my opinion. I certainly don't want my money back.

| I also agree. Having a memorial fund is a wonderful idea and like Betteanne stated, heaven forbid if there is an emergency the funds are there without having to reach YT'ers then after the fact we could be reached to help put the money back in the fund to keep it going. Carol & Buddy |

| Aubrey you are an amazing and thoughtful woman! I think it is a great idea to keep in it a memorial fund or to use it to help rescue. Thanks Missy for keeping track of this!

| Here Are My Thoughts :) Hi- I just wanted to thank you everysingle one of you who donated, the flowers were just beautiful in everyway, they made me smile, and i thank you for that, you have shown me such amazing support it is overwhleming, i feel so lucky to have everysingle one of you on YorkieTalk, ella was Truly a VERY VERY lucky little girl to have so many wonderful people like you that prayed for her and cared so much about her . I know and believe she brought her sister to me, she brought all of us here at YorkieTalk closer too . I want you all to know that i apprecaite so much for all the support and love, and i apprecaite all the donations and that were offered to me to help with my vet bills from ella .... Its not something i would EVER ACCEPT, will and i have been talking and the right thing to do is to save it for others who may need what you all have givin and provided for us, the flowers and the frame was just an amazing gift and i also want to donate to this fund to help others, i couldnt have asked for anything more from you all, THE ONLY THING WE ASK IS THAT WE NAME IT ..... THE ELLA FUND ..... that would mean sooooo MUCH to us , and it would keep ella's memory alive for all . thank you again to everysingle one of you for all the love and friendship and support .

| I love this idea and I think "The Ella Fund" is an appropriate name. I'd be honored to be a part of this.

| Hello. I agree, the Ella Fund it is. Such a great idea, thanks for showing us the value of prayer and belief in others Aubrey. I have learned a lot from your experience. I say the fund stays to help rescues and other emergencies or medical YT issues. I am so glad I found this site, early in my babies life. I will need every single one of you very much to help me, help him get through this. He is not doing so well today. Please pray for him! Thanks again Aubrey and Will! Can't wait to see all the pics of baby Nessa growing up! Raquel and Chu

Lovin' 2 Girls Donating Member | I am so sorry for the recent tragedy that brought this whole thing about. So many TYers have also lost their beloved companions, and so it shall ever be - the circle of Life. Yes, I vote for a fund to recognize such losses. This site, though huge, truly is a 'family' - whose members have hearts overflowing with compassion.

BANNED FOR NOT MAILING PRODUCTS PURCHASED | I have made a new pay pal account, I have not yet transfered the money, was waiting on all the other YT members who have donated to say there opinions. Maybe we should elect a couple people to handle this with me. They will have access to this paypal account. As of now I'm using my email address, but we could make up a new email account just for this. |
