I emailed about donating to the bicycle fund and received a message from his son.

Thank you for the message. Ross loved Calgary Puck and we would all hear him laughing everyday from some post on the page.
My Mother and I set up a bank account to funnel the donations directly into buying bikes, instead of using a GoFundMe or other websites as they take some of the money donated, and we want to make sure that 100% of the donations will be used on what my Dad loved the most. We have partnered with his favourite bike shop on Macloed, The Bike Shop South, in which we will buy the bikes from them and they will make sure that the children who receive the bikes have them properly fitted to their needs. The best way to donate would be to send an E-transfer to this email address (rosspatonmemorial@gmail.com) that is connected to the bank account we have set up.
Thank you again Kevin for reaching out. If you have any other questions please let me know.
Kind Regards,
Ben, Joann, and Lauren
