As most of you all know I am a member (sponsor) of a few forums and recently (within the last month) we had one of our members John Fisher, a guy I am happy to call a friend go through a tragic situation where he lost his new born daughter Julia Grace not long after she was born... one of three triplets.
Some of the members decided to start a fund raiser for his other two new borns (Noah and Lauren) scholarship fund. Here is the post that started it all..

As many of you may have seen Golfnut2400 had a loss of his newborn daughter this morning. As a result and to show some support for his family I would like to know if anyone would be interested in a benifit auction in Julia's name. This would contribute to starting a scholarship fund for the 2 surviving children.

This is the post from John Fisher advising us of this tragic situation

As some of you may know, my wife Casey was carrying triplets for the past 29 weeks. At 4a.m. Friday morning, she went in for an emergency c-section as the smallest girl (Julia Grace) heart rate started to drop. Within 10min. all 3 babies were out. Noah John was 3 lbs, Lauren Elizabeth was 3 lbs 2 oz. and Julia was at 1 lb. 6 oz. Poor Julia.. we lost her 38 hrs later... she went with the lord at 6 pm on Saturday night in the secure arms of her loving mother. She had a massive brain bleed and her kidneys were not functioning. We took her off the vent so mama could hold here in her final minutes. She is now no longer in pain and is playing with her toys up in heaven.
Noah and Lauren are in serious condition but are stable. Mama lost 1/4 of her blood, but is ok, but sadden by the decision we were forced to make. But it is for the best and I believe Julia was an angel that touched all of us and brought our family together. She has sacrificed greatly to make it better for her sister and brother by making us strong. Its hard for us focus, but we need to give Noah and Lauren everything we got out of respect and love for Julia. God bless You.
So, I thought I'd let everyone know what is going on. I have had some very nice emails from some of you, and I thank you. I will check in every now and then but I just thought that anyone who talks to God, if you wish to put a good word in for my wife and my kids, please feel free.
God Bless
John
