I am very sorry to hear about this even though I didn't personally know him. I will keep him in my thoughts and will most certainly send a crane his way.

As I have been folding cranes on and off since fifth grade, I will send as many cranes as I have folded.
I am so very sorry to here this, even though I do not know Dave very well.

My goal is to overnight 100 cranes on Monday (or Tuesday at the latest). I've got about 60 done so far. Have also sent countless prayers to the Man Upstairs's suggestion box.

I will probably not be able to send Dave any cranes at this point (long story), but I hope one of you can make one in my name...and I want Dave to know that I'm praying for him.

I don't know Dave personally, but have been lucky enough to play his awesome games. Hoping only the best for him.

I'll try to get a few out to you next week. You are sending them out on May 2nd, right?

Quick question - Is it OK to mail them flat in an envelope (all folded, but just needing to have their wings pulled slightly apart)?
