Will's Tavern

There is a new group on FB for friends and fans of William Rivers Pitt. It is currently an open group to allow those from DU who want to commune with kindred spirits from the old days.

Will's death is very hard on many of us and it might be on you. If so, come on over.

OTOH, if you come over to relitigate any issues you had with him, you will likely be shown the door.

She'll need a lot to cover some of the expenses of growing up and getting a good education.

I think Will would be touched that hundreds of people across the country who didn't know his family in "real life" are stepping up for his beloved daughter.

Sweet Lola has a lifetime of loss ahead of her. She shouldn't have to worry about her education on top of it.
