Awful. Whenever stuff like this happens it really reminds you another day isn’t a given. Prayers for his family.

I want to contribute. I'm sure this is the safe and legit real deal link? It appears Wes DID NOT have a life insurance policy according to the post.

A reminder that life is fragile. Every day is a gift from God. Love those you can, while you can.

For what it’s worth, AtoZ Sports reported that it was set up by his sister Molly and linked to it.

We give Dan Wolken a ton of grief (deservedly so) but he gets props for showing up here on the GFM...

Seeing Jahmai Mashack show up in the meal train one speaks for itself. About Wes Rucker, about Jahmai Mashack, about Tennessee.

It's not my place to suggest but if the donation links could be temporarily pinned to the top, that would probably be a good thing.

Such tragic news. RIP Wes Rucker. Prayers for his family for peace and comfort during this trial. From all sources Wes was a good Christian man, so to his wife and children ( one on the way) cherish the memories and live for the reunion. God bless.

He seemed to take a lot of **** from some people on Vol Twitter, dude was genuine though RIP

 

[kiddiedoc]

Dang, listening to Josh and Swain attempt to start the show was tough. I wouldn't be able to go on the air today after losing a close friend like this. Serious respect for them.

That’s very helpful. You can’t be too careful with who you send to.

[orangepenez]

This is a sad day for Volnation and absolutely tragic for the Rucker family. Sending prayers for love, healing and prosperity to his wife, son, unborn child and others he leaves behind.

Wes was obviously highly regarded and much loved. He will be greatly missed by many.
