I thought I'd look at the fundraiser again and it's approaching 90k, regardless of what you might think of them overall it's cool Tony Khan donated 10k and Jericho 2.5k

There are really good people in a sometimes awful industry.

I'm sadly reminded of how Mick Foley said that when Droz was paralyzed that some, himself included, lost touch with him because they didn't know what to say or what to do, but most of all that they knew it could happen to any one of them, and there was a fear being in the presence of that. He also said in either an addition to that book or the next book that he had since begun correspondence with Droz again and stopped letting that fear stop him. I do hope that her husband will get emotional support in addition to financial, and that all of this is a sign of a more frank treatment of loss in wrestling circles than there used to be.

10K from Tony Khan. Good on him. So glad so many people are showing they’re there for Blake and the kiddos.

Yeah, going down the list of top donations it's pretty much all wrestlers (or the guy in charge of Pro Wrestling Tees)
and the two top are Kevin Owens and Tony Khan.

The fund hit over 101K earlier.
Bull James updated with this message: Hey everyone. I just wanted to send a huge thank you to all of you who decided to help Cory and his family through this difficult time. I knew the goal would be met but never expected this to happen. It’s truly heartwarming. All of the payments will be going directly to Cory as I’ve made him the beneficiary through GoFundMe. Thank you all so much again for your kindness to Cory and Sara’s family during this tragic time. - Bull
Another update, this time a message from Sara's family:
From the Weston & Lee Family:
On behalf of the Weston and Lee family we would like to express our deepest gratitude for the love that has been shown towards Cory, Sara, and their beautiful children. Cory has taken a step back from social media but is blown away by the generosity everyone has shown. Through the darkest times you guys have been a ray of light.
Thank you, will never be enough. ❤️

Sad to read it was a suicide.
Really traumatic for Wesley Blake and their children.

Another article I read said there were "letters of intent at the scene." So yeah, not accidental or anything I guess.

Didn't need the necro bump as there's no new information, so I'm going to lock this.
