   This may not be the right place for this,if not Jeff will move it I suppose,anyway at work yesterday I learned that one of the mexicans that work with us lost his home and wverything in it over the weekend. Seems the power went off in the bad weathet we had ,so they went to the next town to the mexican store,when they got back his mobile home was totaly engulfed.They literly have what they had on their backs.
   The horror &devistation are just as real for him as it would be for any of us.I dont know what if anything G P will do to help,I'm sure that our shift will help.and I've lrt our church know,they'l help too. Just something to think about,it could happen to any one of us just as easily.

That's awful, Dail.  It really hits you when it happens to someone you know. I hope he gets plenty of support from the community.

MY heart goes out to your friend. Being a voluteer fireman I am very familiar with that senario. Thankfully they weren't home and there was no loss of life. I always hug the wife and kids a little harder after one of them fires.

I am a volunteer firefighter and about a month ago we had a bad trailer fire.  The couple got out with what they could throw on, not even shoes and it was -26.

I'm a volly also. About 3 weeks ago a friend lost her barn, ell and most of a large colonial. We were able to salvage some furniture and clothing as well as several dozen photo albums. Everything else was a total loss. No lives were lost or firefighters injured. Scott

Dail, sorry to hear about your friends loss, glad no one was hurt.  Has the Red Cross been notified, they have funds for immediate needs.  Chet, William and Scott, hug them loved ones when you head out the door and stay safe brothers.  BWW

HEY JEFF B


I ain't got much but God has always told me to share, especially to those who need it. Is there any way to set up a Forestry Fourm fund for these folks?? I would donate a few bucks!

I like the spirit of the idea, but for now I think it would be better to get a name an address in an instant message and send a gift direct.

The people of my home town have been very generous with both time and money to help out. It is nice to see folks pull together in times of need. Scott

             HEY GUYS
   Just a little update here,Our shift passed the hat the other day for Alberto I was real impressed.He speaks only a little english,so about all he said then was thanks.Later he was in the stacker cab,that guy speaks good ,was showing me the cash & crying I dont think he expected anything like that.He told me through interperter last night that all they need now is food and dishes,two set in my kitchen floor now.His landlord is supposed to replace the trailer in a couple of weeks.Let me thank you guys for your interest and concern,but most of all for your prayers for someone you dont even know.
