Where do I start? I first met Rocky at Gary Con in 2016. I had literally no idea who he was; I just knew that he had a larger-than-life personality, and I wanted to know more. Over the next few years, and well over a dozen various conventions, I came to find that Rocky and his wife, Kendra, (as well as their boys) had become friends and integral parts of this extended OSR family I find myself a part of.
Kendra reached out to me back in 2020 (yes, THAT year) to let me know about Rocky's health struggles, as I had recently had my own. What I went through is nothing compared to what Rocky, Kendrs, and their family have gone through over the last five years, let alone Rocky's recent Stage 4 cancer diagnosis.
As I've mentioned before, the funds raised through The Tavern's DTRPG Affiliate Program belong to the community, and this is one of those times I get to put those words into practice.
Here is a link to a GoFundMe Page set up to help the Gardner Family in their time of need.
The Tavern will match the first $250 raised by members of The Tavern's Community for the Gardner Family. Just make your donation, then leave a comment below indicating the amount you donated.
I thank you in advance. Any amount is appreciated.
