On the afternoon of Friday January 12, Duke Kenric disappeared while kayaking off the coast of his hometown in Rhode Island. An extensive search was conducted by local law enforcement and the Coast Guard. At noon today, the authorities changed the nature of the search from one of rescue to one of recovery. This generally means that they no longer have an expectation of finding him alive.
Duke Kenric is a pillar of our community and it is understandable that many in the East will want to share their memories of Kenric with others. Comments are open on this post in order to provide a space for these. A GoFundMe campaign has been established for those who want to provide financial support to Duchess Avelina and their daughter during this difficult time.
Au courant de l’après-midi du vendredi 12 janvier, duc Kenric a été porté disparu lors d’une excursion en kayak sur les côtes du Rhode Island. Des recherches exhaustives ont été entreprises par la garde-côtes et les autorités locales. Aujourd’hui sur le midi, ces dernières ont changé la nature de ces recherches, les faisant passer de sauvetage à récupération. Il peut être inféré qu’ils n’ont plus d’attentes à le retrouver sain et sauf.
Duc Kenric est un pilier de notre communauté. Il est donc compréhensible que plusieurs dans le royaume de l’Est voudront partager leurs mémoires de ce dernier. À cet effet, les commentaires sont ouverts sur cette publication. Une campagne GoFundMe a été levée pour ceux qui voudraient, en ces temps difficiles, offrir un support financier à duchesse Avelina et leur fille.

≈ Comments Off on Ansteorra Begins Collecting Donations/PayPal for Victims of Hurricane Harvey
Tags
This post has been shared by request from the Ansteorra Gazette, where updates and specific requests will be posted.
Greetings from Ansteorra!
As everyone knows, The Kingdom has been visited by Hurricane Harvey. It has ravaged our coastline and many of our Baronies and Shires in that group have taken more than 20” of rain with more on the way. Many people have evacuated, and some are still in the process of being evacuated. It will be some time before we know the full extent of the damage Harvey has left.
Their Majesties, their Highnesses, and their Excellencies Bonwicke, their Excellencies Elfsea, and their Excellencies Steppes, and the autocrat of Braggart’s War this weekend have been very gracious in allowing me to place a collection container at the gate table to collect gift cards and cash for the victims of this storm. Please do not bring stuff. We are not ready to accept donations other than gift cards or cash, there is nowhere to store the stuff (the rain is still falling and everyone is still evacuated). We will do another collection for this at a later time.
At this point, we are going to limit donations to gift cards, cash, and PayPal donations. Once people have returned to their homes and begun to assess the damage, we will begin to start a list (physical and amazon wish-type) of “stuff” that needs to be replaced, but we will only do that once the rain has stopped, Harvey has left, and they have a place to put it.
The only monies in the PayPal account are relief funds. Any cash received will be added to the PayPal account for accounting/accountability purposes. It is not an SCA affiliated account, nor are the donations tax deductible. All monies need to be given by individuals to help those who want to help those affected. All donations will be used to help the affected, and any excess money (after the tornado, we split all monies equitably, and I foresee this being the same situation with no excess) will be given equally to Red Cross, Salvation Army, TX Food Bank, and the Humane Society.
We could also use gift cards to help fill immediate needs and help with clean-up. The best gift cards are Generic Visa/MC, Wal-Mart, Target, Home Depot, Lowe’s, HEB, PetCo, and other big box stores.
Donations can be sent to the PayPal address AnsteorraTwister@gmail.com.
Mail (and gift card) donations can be sent to me:
Brandy Merrell
629 Unbridled Lane
Keller, TX 76248
I will send them on to where they will be most helpful.
Anyone can feel free to contact me for more information or clarification: Brandy.Merrell@gmail.com.
In Service,
Lady Marion inghean ui Ruanadha
