    Kim Stolfer PAFOA screen name is Activist do a search to read some of Kim’s post.

    Was trying to summaries without writing a long essay how one individual person constantly battle to help gun owner and the really the citizen of this country keep and retain their rights from government constantly attempting to take them away.

    I been fortunate enough to have the opportunity to spend much time with Kim interacting on Political front lines with him over the last 20 years, (never did ever have any range time together having fun) and he ALWAYS amazed me that he found time to help people out that he didn't know and try to educate them on how they could be effective on many different front lines besides just firearm issues for anyone that was open minded to listen and learn some wisdom of what works and what don’t. NEVER a fee or condition for Kim's help wisdom freely shared

    IF Kim would have spent all that time trying to turn a coin instead of helping people out would probably be rich right now and need of nothing from US.


    If you every watched the old movie called “it’s a wonderful life” with Jimmy Steward, Kim’s life plays out much like that movie roll of another PA native plays.


    Rather read about essay about Kim activist and sacrifices efforts over the year which we all benefited from Kim’s political activism.



    Why don’t you post your positive & constructive influences and experiences with Kim had on you over the years instead, as this was Kim's Prime Directive,


    Like Kim or not, there is no denying that one dedicated individual activist can and does have a great impact on the political landscape of PA and beyond.

    A best lesson we all should learn from Kim’s life long example of how to be a leader other people will follow.





    On behalf of Kim and his family I also WISH to thank all of you for your generous donations and support.

    You demonstrate that Kim hasn’t wasted his time trying to defend our Republican form of government.

    IF you can do nothing else due to a tough economy, most of all PLEASE pray for Kim’s recovery and healing of his body as this is where his hope lies now, on rather than the amount of paper money with different ink patterns printed on them.




    Be aware IF Kim and when he falls there is going to be a big freaking hole RTKBA front in PA.

    who among you is willing to take this thankless task of being a “unpaid” Activist on as Kim has done?

    Think about it…………the consequences for the future




    This post doesn’t accurately express all Kim sacrifices and real value to ALL of US for services rendered over the many years
    sorry Buddy you deserve better than I can write to fully express

    I've known Kim since about a few months after PAFOA started, early on he was at a town hall meeting when someone identified themselves as being associated with "PAFOA" and unfortunately made a remark that wasn't very good for gun rights and a few of the guys like Kim who were working very hard on gun rights issues were concerned that PAFOA might have been an astro-turf setup like AHSA. From this terrible misunderstanding however came something great. Kim and his colleagues reached out to me, I confirmed that whoever was at the meeting had no official relation to the organization and that we were not actually working for the Brady Campaign.

    Once that was cleared up, I gained some of the best friends I could ask for on a personal level and within the context of this issue. As PAFOA continued to grow and grow at an astounding pace Kim was very quick to realize the potential of the communication medium we've all built here and worked very closely to help us through some of the muck. He took days out of his life and hours on the phone to educate me on the history of gun rights in PA, the dynamics of firearm politics in our legislature, and did his best to involve me to the best of my ability in figuring out what I could do to help.

    Anyone who knows Kim knows how dedicated he was to liberty and how hard he worked for gun rights in PA. It is my personal belief that Kim's efforts account for many of the liberties that each of us enjoy (and sometimes even take for granted) as gun owners.

    Kim has given up large chunks of his life doing a job that is often thankless. I'm a workaholic that works about 60-80 hours/week and I can't hold a candle to how hard he worked, it's completely unreal.

    I will be donating to his fund and I urge anyone who has the means and the will to do so as well.

    If you donate with a credit card, you need to enter the expiry date as MM/YYYY, eg 11/2013. If you put 11/13 it will say your card is expired.

    If you donate via a debit or credit card through the on-line web site, do you know if that site takes a fee or not? I can understand a small fee for covering web site cost, but if they take some larger fee, I'd just as soon send a check and then no fee will be taken.

    Can you tell me the answer to this?

    Thanks

    Dave

    Donated.. Thank you, Mike, for posting this. Kim is such an inspiration and it saddens me to hear he is suffering. I sincerely hope he's able to be well again and that PAFOA can help him. In our very early days he was extremely helpful to us and we owe him a huge debt of gratitude.

    If you can spare a dollar, send it. If you can spare more, send more.

    I don't have much to give, but I'll give what I can to someone in dire need of help. While I can't give much money, I'll make sure to spread this far and wide in the hopes that where I can not afford to give as I would like to, I can make up for it by getting the word out.

    I've never met Kim but he shall be in my prayers and those of my family. Hang strong!

    Kim is the greatest pro 2A person I have ever met. He truly lives what he preaches and says what he means.

    He has never turned down a phone call, or rushed through conversation with me. He made time.

    I wish him all the best and for him to realize he is needed.

    I hope to continue the fight for RTKBA lead by Kim and his close friends.

    Be well, and stay strong.

    While many claim to support the right, precious few support the practice.
