Please Support The Family Of Cst Mark Neville
Monday, September 4th, 2017
I just received news of a tragic car accident which took the life of Constable Mark Neville and injured his wife and sons. Mark was a member of the RCMP and the friend of a friend which makes him family. I know this news is shocking and has hit a lot of people very hard. You all have our deepest condolences, especially his family.
His colleagues have started a Go Fund Me Page to help his family during this trying time. If you knew Mark please consider donating to this cause.

This is the note which I have been authorized to share.
“Eric…. It is with great sadness that I am writing to you to let our brothers-in-arms know that one of our snipers and cherished friend, Mark Neville, has sadly perished in a vehicle accident in British Columbia on September 2nd. While travelling with his wife and 2 young sons, another vehicle crossed the center line and impacted Mark’s truck. He succumbed to his injuries at scene. His wife and two sons survived the incident and are recovering in hospital. Words cannot describe what our team is feeling right now.
Growing up in Canada’s north Mark was the embodiment of an easy going, humble, hard working, salt of the earth farm boy. He put people at ease with his demeanour, would give you the shirt off his back, and truly loved being a Mountie. In short, a man and a father that we all hope our sons will become.
Mark worked and trained extensively over the years with a number of your readers. In support of his family we have established a site to help his sons and wife. It can be found at;

Best Regards, Corporal James McLeod, Royal Canadian Mounted Police, Emergency Response Team

SwampButt Underwear Donating 100% of Sales to SPCA Impacted By Harvey
Thursday, August 31st, 2017August 31, 2017 (Lake Jackson, Texas) The owners of SwampButt Underwear will donate 100% of the proceeds (less taxes and shipping) from sales of their popular men’s underwear to the Brazoria County SPCA now through September 7, 2017. The Brazoria County SPCA is in Lake Jackson, Texas. There and in the surrounding areas of the county, the brunt of flooding rain has displaced tens of thousands of people and their pets. For those who want to donate but do not need any underwear, the company has a Facebook based fund raiser at the top of its Facebook page:: www.facebook.com/swampbutt.
From the Owners
“In the wake of Hurricane Harvey, your friends at SwampButt Underwear™ are raising money for the SPCA of Brazoria County,” owner Harold Nicoll said. “Our county is just south of Houston where tens of thousands of residents have lost their homes, belongings and even their dogs and cats. Many pets were abandoned during the storm. Others are dropped at the shelter because their owners cannot evacuate with them. Our shelter is very stressed and can really use your help. If you can only spare a dollar, we thank you for it. Every little bit helps.”
This dog and her puppies were abandoned just prior to the arrival of Hurricane Harvey. Fortunately, they were rescued and adopted by a local family, but others were not as fortunate. To help dogs and cats like these please go to: www.facebook.com/swampbutt.

Along with our initial donation, Strike Force is offering its customers an opportunity to pitch in. By entering discount code “HARVEY” at checkout at www.StrikeForceEnergy.com, Strike Force will match your purchase with a donation to local Police, Fire, and EMS workers in the affected areas.
Strike Force Energy is a high-powered liquid energy drink concentrate that can be mixed with any beverage. Sugar free / calorie free with nearly no sodium and around 1/3 of the ingredients, Strike Force is healthier than other canned energy drinks. “The Beverage Enhancer ™” means just that, we can go into any beverage, allowing you to create your own energy drink experience.
