Your generosity is inspiring! The County issued deadline for site clean-up is April 2nd. A local company assessed the cost at $10,000. The family's pitching in w/ labor to reduce the cost any way we can, AND if you're able to help financially -- we'd so appreciate that! Thank you.

My cousin Erin says it beautifully: "I would like to say to everyone who has sent their well wishes, prayers and hugs to my grandma and my family, we appreciate you all. Thank you to everyone who has donated to the plumfund page that was started to assist my family as well. Your hearts and generosity are amazing. Gives hope to us all." Please continue to spread the word as you feel inspired. We've got a strong start, and there's much more to do. Thank you!

We visited the site last night to be with my Grandma. The fire crew was doing "mop up" work to make sure no embers flew away and ignited a neighboring home.
