Posting for my husband - he has passed away [BillSelfsTrophycase]
 

My husband loved this website and spent years on it. He passed away March 27th due to a case of the flu and pneumonia. It was a sudden passing that wasn't expected and has left me and his two teenage daughters heart broken. I am posting this on his profile so everyone can share if you could please.


With David passing so suddenly we have been left with very little money to pay bills. All credit cards were in his name and have been cancelled. He had no back up accounts as he has just started a work at home business and put all his money in to it just two weeks ago. It has also been shut down.
We are trying so hard to find a way to do this but the first couple months will not be easy. I am a proud person much like him and don’t like asking for help. Yet our two daughters need me too. I have $600 in the bank to pay our mortgage and all bills this month. It isn’t going to work.
I know money is tight but if anyone has any they can donate it would help us out so much. I just need a couple months to figure it all out. I am disabled and get just a small amount each month. It’s not going to cut it. If you want to view his obituary it's online under David Robaugh JR (he is the only one with that name other than his dad).
If you can help, David’s oldest daughter has set up a go fund me account or I have a PayPal account you can use.

My deepest sympathies and prayers for you and your Family.

Wow, I'm really sorry to hear that.

Sorry for your loss. I'll spread around the link you provided as much as I can.

Make sure you reach out to Social Security to find out what benefits may be available.

May God grant you grace and peace.

My condolences on your family's loss.

So sorry for your loss! Wishing you and your family the best!

Condolences you and your family are in our prayers,

Sorry for your loss.

Pneumonia can sneak up on you. The suddenness is so hard. All you can do is hug and comfort each other.

Sorry for your loss. RIP

40 is so awfully young, may God see you through this ordeal... and hopefully the Planet is there for your family in this time of need

RIP, David

Sorry for you and your family's loss. May David rest in peace and your minds be filled with the joyful memories of his being here.

oh no...

Im very sorry to hear that.

RIP

He was a funny guy...and will be missed.

Damn.

Sorry for your loss.

Sorry for your loss and thoughts and prayers.

I’m so sorry for your loss RIP

Heartfelt sympathy and prayers headed your way.

"BillSelfs Trophycase Lounge". Can we make this happen mods?


Sorry for your loss. Bummer :(

So sorry to hear. BTL seemed like a straight up guy. Way too young. RIP.

Thank you.

Live life to the fullest it's the only one you get and don't know how long it's going be.

Thank you. We are but survivor benefits since he was so young is only $300 and only one child is eligible. So it'll be tough but I know we'll find a way to get through it. We appreciate all the prayers.

- Sara

I just want to say thank you to everyone on David's behalf (BillSelfsTrophycase)
I know he loved this site so much. He talked about a lot of things said on here and had been a member for years but might have used another name when he was a younger.
We appreciate everyones help and prayers.
If you can spread the link around I can't tell you how much it would mean to us.
He left behind a wife of 18 years and two daughters 14 & 17 who miss him very much

My sympathies to you and your family. May God give you peace and provide for all of your needs.

Sorry for your loss. I can’t imagine the position you are in.

So sorry Sara - yes it was Carls20yearplan - that was another username he held.

My prayers go out and up to you...

Sorry for your loss. Prayers

Damn.
So sorry for the loss to your family. May he RIP.

So sorry for your loss :(

I don't recall interacting with your husband during the last decade but none the less I am so sorry for your loss. Too many of CP members. It's been a tough 2-3 years as many of us are over 50 and into our 60's here.

God Bless you and your family and prayers in your struggles.

So very sorry for your loss

She has went from the low $1200s last night, to the high $1300s so far, no doubt thanks to the Planet... lets hope it continues to climb by opening our hearts and wallets

40 years old is almost unbelievable... just like almost all of our other losses around here, its waaay too young, what the hell is happening to our young guys these days?

I was thinking the same thing. 40 years old is awfully young to have pneumonia take you out. From the pictures I looked at online it looks like he may have had a stroke earlier in life also. Very sad to see someone so young pass away.

Respect and best wishes.

I'm really sorry to hear about this. He seemed like a genuinely good guy.

I dont like putting credit card information into a Go Fund me page.

Do you have Paypal, Ca$h, Venmo or any of those type of options? Just make sure you select "gift" and there are no fees. All the money goes directly to you and your family.

Giving this a bump for the weekday crew. Rough weekend for CP.

Paypal info is in the OP.

yeah it sure was. :(:(

So sorry to hear about this, Sara. May God bless you and your Family, and may David rest in peace.

Oh may, 40 years old!?

I don't think i can say anything that hasn't already been said....

Condolences.

So sorry to hear of this, May God Bless you and the family!

Sorry to hear that.

She’s “disabled” and this likely already on SSI.

Buy life insurance to protect your family, boys and girls.

The OP should ignore this post. Survivor benefits for minor children have nothing to do with an adult receiving SSI benefits. The benefits are paid to each surviving child that the number holder was the parent of.

Whether you had life insurance or not, a trip to your local Social Security office should be high on your priority list to get set up with the benefits due to you and the children.

prayers

So sorry for your loss!

Sorry for your loss. My brother passed away a little over a year ago, just a few weeks from his 37th birthday. Left 2 small boys and a wife. He was former military so had some benefits in place there but it definitely is a difficult time to go through.

My God, what a jackass... this post should have 500 thumbs down

Sorry to hear this. You and your children will be in my thoughts and prayers

Very sorry to hear. God bless.

My sincerest condolences. May God bless you and your family.

Very sorry for your loss. You and your children will be in my thoughts.
