My condolences and RIP Ben ;(

Thanks for doing this. I assume that sending a check is the best way (thus avoiding PayPal fees?).

Baronpilot244 · October 23rd, 2009, 22:00

Donation sent - wish it could be more.

Thoughts are with Ben's family..............

donated, I hope it helps with something, I guess every drop helps fill the bucket.

I really didn't know him other than through the posts (and of course the avatar), but it really is hitting me hard. I am the exact same age, in the same position, same flight time, with a 1 year old daughter myself. It is making me really take pause. God bless his family.

there are no fees, so paypal is really the best way to go.

It's really cool of you to put this together. Hopefully we can all pitch in to help out that little family. The hugs my 3 year son has giving me have meant so much more to me over the past few days. I still feel sick for Ben and his family. Also for those in Utah you can donate at UCCU in his name.

Sent what I could. Wish it could have been more. My heart will forever ache for those girls and their loss. Blue Skies Ben, we'll miss you more than you'll ever know.

Correct.

Qgar · October 24th, 2009, 13:24

When the time is right, she will be deeply touched by the outpouring of love, respect and admiration for Ben by not only friends, but strangers as well. Thank you, Joe. Hang in there.....

ChasenSFO · October 24th, 2009, 17:11

When I get my paycheck Friday I'll make my donation.

AirmetTango · October 25th, 2009, 01:08

My donation will be in the mail on Monday. Such a terrible situation - but awesome to see the strong JC support for his family. Thanks for setting this up, Kristie. May all our thoughts and prayers help to ease the sorrow of the Hill family.

Tworotor7 · October 25th, 2009, 02:27

Also sent what I could, You all are a great bunch of people here

jamin35008 · October 25th, 2009, 02:50

I didn't know of Ben until this tragic event took place, but I too have a family and could not imagine what might be taking place with them right now. I hope my donation will help, even if its just a little.

RIP.

I agree 100%. Everyone on JC has helped someone in some way at some point and I thank all of you!

Thank you Joe.

If she needs anything, let her know that Ben's brother's and sisters at Jetcareers.com will do everything humanly possible to meet those needs.

Kristie,

I am still in disbelief.

I am trying to get my finances in order, so I am able to donate some. What is the cutoff date??

Kristie · October 25th, 2009, 05:04

November 6

SpiraMirabilis · October 25th, 2009, 05:06

Also sent what I could. After seeing the picture of his two daughters I don't think it was possible not to.

jynxyjoe · October 25th, 2009, 09:53

Anyone having trouble with using a debit card?
