Brief Update on Tom Artis Family Fund

If you wanted to donate to the family fund established for the wife and kids of the late artist Tom Artis but didn't want to physically send a check to Springfield, IL, I'm collecting paypal donations from a few of my friends and sending a check off on Memorial Day. .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address)

Tom Artis was a cartoonist and comic book illustrator who passed away in May at age 51. The circumstances leading up to his death and other personal setbacks combined to leave his family in state of financial need. What struck me about this case is that 1) by dying at an early age Artis is among the first of what I feel is a generation of comics folk at financial risk in this way, and 2) I think there's every reason to believe that this specific point of need can be met by a number of small donations.
