Your word is good enough for me, but you're not alone in your observation. Several good guys say the same.

Here's an update that's been posted on the GoFundMe site

UPDATE FROM TAMARA & THE HORNBUCKLE FAMILY

We would like to express our deepest gratitude for the incredible outpouring of support that we have received in the last week. The sheer volume of well wishes, prayers, and messages is so touching that it is difficult to put into words what it means to us. The generosity of everyone is staggering and we don’t even know how to begin to convey our appreciation

Todd continues to remain sedated and he has made it through his third surgery. He is doing as well as could be hoped given the severity of his injuries. The biggest prayer request is against the spread of infection.

Madelynn’s injuries are progressing well and she should be discharged from the hospital within the next few days.

We will update again in a few days and we just ask for continued prayers. God is at work right now and we are witnessing his grace and blessing on a daily basis. Thank you all!

Tamara & The Hornbuckle Family

When I first contributed, their goal was $100,000 and they were at $88K. When I read that update, their new goal was $200K because they had blown through the $100K goal and had $171K ish contributed at that point.

Way to go guys and girls. I'm sure he will need it.

It was evident soon after starting this that the first goal of $30k would be reached in short order. The love and outpouring of support for Todd and his family has been incredible. GoFundMe being what it is, the goal has been raised as the word had gotten out about Todd's situation and the donations came in. I am incredibly humbled by the response and am proud to call Horny my friend. He has a long road ahead and I'm sure all the donations with be put to good use to bring some comfort to him and his family.

Less than $1500 to their goal of $200,000. Let's go boys and girls! Think of what this brotherhood of pilots could do for your family if GFB, something awful happened to any of us.

Here is the latest update from Justin about Horny from the GoFundMe site.

I first wanted to thank every one of you that have shown an overwhelming amount of support for Todd, Madelynn, and his family. Chad and I had the opportunity visit Todd yesterday and Tamara told us how uplifting, helpful, and comforting the goodwill, support, and prayers have been to all of them. It has helped lift their spirits through this most difficult time and there are truly no words that could possibly begin to convey how thankful they all are.

Update on Todd

Chad and I had the opportunity to visit with Horny yesterday and although we wish it were under different circumstances, it was great to see him.
Horny had us laughing in the first few minutes we were there. He wasn’t to “happy about the shoes” they had on him but the rest of his outfit was ok.
All things considered, he’s in good spirits and he’s an incredible fighter. He is awake, although sedated for the pain, and able to speak briefly. Amazingly, they had him up that morning to take a quick tour of the facility. The nurses we spoke with are encouraged by his progress. That being said, he still likely has multiple surgeries remaining to treat his burn injuries. He’s showing his true grit by already trying to work on his rehabilitation exercises even though his movement is very restricted.
It would still be premature and irresponsible of me to make any kind of prediction about his condition or how long he will be in the ICU. Simply stated, his condition is quite dynamic, and the medical staff is concerned about infections and other possible complications, but they are optimistic about his recovery and that’s all a fighter like Horny needs.

We told him about the swift and powerful show of support for him from all of you and we know he was deeply moved, even if he couldn’t say it, by what all of you have done for him and his family.
