Moderators dtel's wife Posted November 25, 2017 Moderators Share Posted November 25, 2017 I’m posting this here at the encouragement of another forum member. I would like to send my very deepest condolences to Roy Delgado, Chief Engineer for Klipsch Group, Inc. on the unexpected loss of his younger brother, Michael. I will be sending our condolences to the family in Donna, TX. If any of you would like to contribute you may do so by sending donations to Busy.bees.orders@gmail.com via PayPal. Just put ROY on your contribution. We intend to send flowers, as well as a donation to the family to assist in expenses. All contribution info is being shared with @MetropolisLakeOutfitters and @Scrappydue so others are aware of what monies are being collected. I’m not tagging Roy or any of his family in this post, in the hopes that we can pull this off without notifying them. As always, feel free to PM me with any questions you may have.

Please tell Roy I'm thinking about him and wish him and his family peace. Lost my brother going on 2 years ago soon and still feels like yesterday.

Moderators dtel's wife Posted November 25, 2017 Author Moderators Share Posted November 25, 2017 Thank you for your generous contribution @mikebse2a3 It means more than you even know. Thank you to all that have contributed. The loss was very unexpected and I’m certain the family and Roy will appreciate any contributions we put together. We are never fully accepting of the passing of a loved one, but this was truly unexpected. As always, thank you all and feel free to PM me or the others mentioned above for details. Thank you @MetropolisLakeOutfitters and @Scrappydue for allowing me to post in our Facebook moderators group as donations are received.

USNRET Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 If the services are in Donna and Roy needs transport I am in Corpus 2.5 hours away from Donna and offer a lift down from the airport here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators dtel's wife Posted November 25, 2017 Author Moderators Share Posted November 25, 2017 @USNRETRoy is actually in Donna, TX now. He’s been there for almost a month, dealing with his brother’s illness. Love you my friend and thank you again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume he drove but the offer stands in reverse if need be. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators dtel's wife Posted November 27, 2017 Author Moderators Share Posted November 27, 2017 Another member asked me to leave this open a while longer. Flowers have been ordered, with sentiments from the Klipsch Forum Community and Klipsch Owners Facebook group. We are very close to a $1500 cash donation to defray funeral expenses. Goal $2000. Happy to provide screenshots of donations thus far via PM. Any contribution will help reach the goal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
