MsCat made this suggestion, and I think it's a good one...
"Can you say that we are checking to see what we can do?As far as sending something in memorial and where to send it. My thinking is we send money to the montana trappers association in his name from people donating also from the discretionary fund that he started with me."
"The thing is we need to send more than a $100. In his name for all the work he's done for trapping. So maybe you could ask people if they wanted only an extra 20 bucks to pay. Pal it you whoever so we can get a nice little chunk to go there in his name. Then the fund can send some also ?"

Here's what MsCat gave me...
Paypal - "They can send it to me if they want botiecat@hotmail.com. And just write. The word slim on the Mirror line, I don't use it that much anymore, so just for Amazon stuff. So I don't know what it is, and then I can send it all to whoever I need to"
Mail in - Laurie JonesWoolson 62 Parkhurst Road. OSWEGO NY 13126
"Make sure they make the checks out to me.So I can put them all in one big lump sum and then send them to whoever at the discretionary fund will be making out the check to send to montana"

Well that's pretty weird about the paypal. It does have black Wolf taxidermy as the name on the account I was Rodney's business and that's what we use it for sometimes but changing a name on a PayPal account is such a pain.I haven't changed it back so that's what it will say probably if you could try again........

Just tried a search but nothing as yet.

[/font]OK...........I'm gonna need to do something else. I use PayPal to "pay" things online all the time. however, I have NOT re-hooked my bank account to it, to be able to receive money. Nor do I plan to............I started to do it, got to the point where they said "need to enter your login user name and password to your checking account !!!! NO way am I doing that. Been scammed 3 yrs ago, taught me a valuable lesson and I lost $1500 in the process. Thought I was pretty intelligent until that! Need suggestions if I should get another one of those type things? I am not willing to give any of them my bank acct login in user name and password.
Options :
1. Venmo? is that safe and no giving them that personal info?
2. Does anyone else *that I know personally* have a paypal they can send the money to ? I say that, because I am unwilling also to take a chance on someone I don't know receiving the money for Slim's memorial......nothing personal to anyone here. I loved the guy, and that's just the way I am...........yeah, I know..........annoying. lol He was one of my best friends, we talked a lot, he was out here 3 -4 times since I married Rodney and moved to upstate NY in 2006 May. As most of you know, Rodney died of cancer March 9 of this year. He was on hospice here at home for 5 weeks, horrible .......Slim was one of my rocks during the last couple years. He didn't tell me when he was diagnosed in May 2025 with acute leukemia, and Rodney's illness was why.
Please send me a private message if you have a paypal and would collect the $ and keep in touch with me on it.
I am heading out for the evening with some friends, so won't be checking this until late.
THANKS to all of you that care about Slim and respect all he has done for trapping.

I have used Venmo to do almost everything I do including the majority of my invoicing (I am a private contractor) for 5 years now. It is as safe as anything online or an ap can be.
I have zero complaints nor have I heard anyone make any.

PAY PAL has always been good for me, they cover lost money on scams too. Never heard of them wanting your password or login to your bank accounts. They just wanted the account number, so be careful.
I clicked on a PAY PAL.COM link once and it asked for my user name and password. Backed out and tried the merchant login, and it had my user name on it and just had to put in my password. I got my bank tied to PAY PAL a long time ago. No problem except they go to my checking account for purchases and deposits , just have to change it is all. I have -$95.00 on my Pay pal credit card, a pay back from a scam. I had already paid the card, before they credited my card.
I hate to pay any interest on any credit card.

I’m a little confused by the request…does it have to be a hundred dollars? … no … she’s just saying we need to send more than a hundred collectively…. I think we can do much better than that

I can see Slim laughing now watching ol crazy maw cat trying once again to do something nice and it blowing up in her face, nearly as bad as her trying to operate a microwave oven, lol.
Notice i didn't agree to send anything, not my first rodeo with ANYTHING that crazy woman is involved in, lol.

Mscat I have sent you money a bit ago without problem. I will try now.
Never mind wife actually read the entire thread. I understand why you can't receive now.
Why don't we all just send checks to you. We all know you and you likely don't personally know many of us.
Can the trapperman fund receive paypal? We can just label it for slim?

Hi, everyone.Thanks for all the comments and replies..... Sounds like I was getting scammed by asking for my password and user name. Glad I backed out of that. I've never tried venmo and I just hate to hook my account to something else.. I can send out payment using PayPal.I just can't bring money in without giving them that information which i'm not gonna do.
Whoever said maybe sending the money to the paypal for the discretionary fund.... whoever is in charge of that, can you message me or call me so we can discuss it. I know that would be extra work for you.But you wouldn't have to do much until it all got there.We could put a deadline date on Sunday.The money paypal or to me on a check at the address I put above.. What about the deadline to getting the money here?Either way is September thirtieth.
I have. Not seen an obituary either..... at his request. .....The family was to do cremation. And spread his ashes up on the mountains. And I think he requested no service. As k9 said to me..."classic slim".

Let's just send checks to Laurie. That would be the simple solution.

Laurie JonesWoolson 62 Parkhurst Road. OSWEGO NY 13126 Sorry I'll sent to where it'll do the most good! If her pay pal has been compromised , not going there. The decenary fund , under Slim , at least it's in safe hands. When was the last time you sent a check by mail?

Ohio I get hundreds of checks every year thru the mail as well as money orders for the last 20 years for my products and never have I had a lost check that I am aware of !
You might have sketchy mail delivery where you live, not every one does !! That's not what I'm pointing out. I've only mailed a check maybe 3 times in the last 10 years. Guess I've been compromised .

I have no problem sending a check. I will have to ask my wife to write it (I also have not written a check in a while). lol I am donating $100 to hit the minimum target the awesome cat person said we needed. I challenge anyone with the means to match me do so so as well. I do not have much slim stuff (I have either passed it on or donated it to an auction). I do have a dvd (productive snaring techniques) and a book (new snare methods). Neither is autographed but I will donate either to the first two who match my donation. First person to pm me gets pick and the second gets the other. After awesome lady and cat person tells me funds received I will mail to you at my dime.
These moments are what respecting those who started the heritage and fought to the last day for it are all about.

Shelly was asking me if id seen anything and i about told her word per word what Slim's wish's were without even knowing he had done that. At last he's back in his beloved rocky mtn's, probably where he was the happiest during this lifetime.

Hi again
Bob S..........I've never used VENMO, I know people that do. How does it work? If they need to hook my bank acct and need that same info, no thanks, no offense! How did you have to set yours up?
TrappinTom.... thank you !!!
OHWolfPerson............I agree on the checks as we don't dare send cash like we used to "back in the good ole days" ......... We used to get pretty creative with putting cash in socks, wrapping the socks in clothes, on and on !
I know a check can be a pain for all of you that are online'ers.......anyone that just will 'not' send one out? In the meantime give me til first of the week to check out Venmo.
