Haller. I’ve been searching my heart to find the words to relay my message to each one of you. Charles D. Haller, aka Tar Tar, is my uncle, friend and very dear to my heart. He was by my side through the births of my two daughters, making sure they were all right. He has achieved the status of a hero in my heart as well as my children’s and many others. By his willingness to put his life in danger in order to protect the home of my children against destructive forces of nature created by a car fire, he did for my children and family what I could not due to my incarceration. And I will forever be in debt to him. Charlie, I love you Browski. And I can feel your pain every time I open a Smoke Signals and see a $5,000 reward for information regarding Heather Cameron (Haller). I feel like I should do something and I’ve decided to reach out to the Tribe and donate $1,000 of my money to raise her reward. And I ask that each and every member capable of donating to this cause to do whatever they can. I am of limited resources due to my circumstances. But I believe Tonya Gleason-Shepek has been closely involved with this matter. Hopefully, she can contact me and we can start a GoFundMe page or something of that nature. Thank you for your time in reading this letter. Contact info is Joshua D. Haller, No. BA0383, HDSP, Z-F-169, P.O. Box 3030, Susanville, CA 96127.
