The following was posted by Doug Thompson on another site. Thought I'd give it a bit more exposure here and on AAW website.

Dave Peebles is an artist, woodturner who is one of the good guys. He found out last week he has cancer which took him out of the game. As a artist that can’t work it’s tough… I’m asking from the bottom of my heart could you PLEASE help. These posts are from Facebook from a family member (cancer survivor herself) which will give the details.

Can you help? Do what you do...please🙂 God Bless!

CAN I HAVE YOUR ATTENTION PLEASE?? All joking and goofiness aside...Our family needs some help...my Uncle David Peebles a 58 year old AMAZING artist and husband to my awesome aunt Lise Peebles, father to my cousin and BOY TWIN Cory Peebles and my amazing cousin Joshua, brother to my super momma Penny Peebles Waack and son of the coolest gramma around (Helen Peebles) is battling a pretty nasty battle with newly diagnosed Lung Cancer and he has NO insurance🙁 We are holding a virtual fundraiser for the next few weeks and we need you! If you have ANYTHING you can donate, money...gas cards, food, prayers...anything...can you find it in your heart to help us? I have done this a million times before for many other people, but this is the hardest...ANY HELP you can give would be an AMAZING gift! Thank you guys sooo much🙂 God Bless you all! Feel free to share this status and lets see what we can make happen for this amazing man!😉 Call 419.388.7760 with questions or mail donations to 203 West Chestnut Street c/o Penny Waack. THANK YOU!

I know from past experience just how giving and caring woodturners are. Let's help a fellow woodturner-artist out!!
 
Thanks for passing this information along.
Yes, David is one of the good guys, and one of the nicest people, that I have ever met.
It greatly saddens me to hear this.
It would be a very generous offering if every AAW member was to donate
a gift of $20 or more to help with Davids battle.
All the best to David and his family.
Jim
