It's Fun to Play the Piano ... Please Pass It On!
I would like to pledge, but Jodi's mailbox here is full, I'm not a member at the WTF (so can't PM there), and the armleg.com link above only gets me to a page that seems to have nothing to do with pianos. I'll send her my pledge as soon as Jodi's had a chance to deal with what's in her PM box here already.
I thank those that are organizing this and appreciate the expression of thoughts that I share, I am in. Thank goodness there is also much good and caring in this world and by PW members in particular.
mik, the sheriff announced that they are setting up donation sites and will be releasing info about where to send money. Will you (or somebody) let us know whether to send it there or some centralized PW/WTF/TNCR location?

Hi Monica -
We're setting up a piano-community specific fund so we can show Peggy's family how much she means to us as a group.
Details will come shortly!!! We've got our best legal minds on it, as well as Jack Frost.
If you don't talk to your children about equal temperment, who will?
In a further step, we have now created an online sympathy card for everyone to join in in sending our love and concern for Peggy and her family. Please take a moment to leave a message. Also, as the instructions will tell you when you post your comment, be sure to include what state or country you live in so Peggy's family will see how far reaching her friendships are. This will mean a lot to them, having it all in one place that they can print out and keep.
Ack! So sorry my PM mailbox was full. I emptied out what I could. I promise I will try to reply to those who are able to pledge as soon as I get them recorded - hopefully later tonight.
At a time like this when we are at a loss for words, at least there is something positive we can all do. My thanks to those who are organizing the collections across the various forums (Piano World, WTF, New Coffee Room, Piano Facts, etc.).
I will be sending out a newsletter in the next day or so, and will mention this to alert the members who may not be aware.
