This is very difficult to write, but necessary.

Rebel's only family was a father who is basically destitute and Rebel was up here to work because he could not find work in Florida to pay his bills.

Rebel was staying with a local man who we call "Mondo".

I was with Mondo at the party saturday night and he's who brought Rebel.

Mondo called me a few minutes ago and asked if I could set up a fund to help raise money to give Rebel a decent burial since his father cannot afford to do so.

Some of us locals will chip in to cover the costs of funeral and burial but we could really use some help - even if it's only a few $$$ in terms of a donation.

A paypal account has been set up to accept donations to help us give Rebel a decent funeral and burial.

The email address is: [email protected] and your Paypal donations to this fund would be greatly appreciated.

We realize that the vast majority of you never met Rebel, but we know if you had you would have valued his friendship and enjoyed being around him.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Jeff, Karen and all of Rebel's other friends.

From speedwake in the thread I just linked to.

Rebel was a fun person to be around. He always had a huge smile on his face and had a way of making people laugh.
He will be missed. Rip Rebel

I will leave the paypal account: [email protected] open until next Monday at which time I will close it and write a check to Mr. DiMaio. I will post the dollar amount in the account at the time I write the check.

thanks so much everyone for their warm wishes, kind words and donations to help Rebel go out with the type of funeral he deserves.

A remembrance party will follow on Friday upstairs at the Nauti-Goose Saloon - Tony is providing food & catering for the party Gratis.
