Honoring my father

My father died last year as the result of a car accident. He and my brother were delivering toys to Toys for Tots when the accident happened. At the time, they did not realize how badly he had been hurt. So they did finish delivering those toys. He collapsed later that night and never woke up.

Toys for Tots is way behind in collections this year. One of the family friends, has been contacting family friends and asking them to each buy a toy and donate a toy to Toys for Tots in my dad's name as a way of honoring his life. If anyone wants to do that, or even donate money to that cause, and even $1.00 would help, my dad's name was Otto Bang.

The website for Toys for Tots is:
