Folks
I just got a call letting me know that
Don & Lori's house burnt this morning! They got out and are ok
or as ok as anyone could be who lost their home.
Will update with more info later. At this time, they are on base
getting new IDs and making arrangements. Luckily they have
a lot of friends who are close by to help. The rest of us can
add our prayers for the time being.

Ugh! So sorry to hear this...but glad they are OK! Is this part of the big fires I am seeing on national news or was it an isolated incident?

Just got off the phone with Darrell, said they were very lucky. Neighbor got up with a newborn and saw flames coming out of the house. Don did manage to get alot of their belongings out including the Bronco and the Mustang.

I haven't called Lori yet - I was told that she was given a cell phone and that phone co. has it fixed so calling her # will ring to it. Will update
after I talk to her.
Folks - this is just another reminder that when you love and care about someone - please let them know how you feel - OFTEN! We were at SMORR wheelin with them this past wkend ...and to think that less than 72 hrs later they could have been taken from our lives is a very 'shaking' experience to say the least.

Don & Lori - In case you see this - Know that you are in our prayers and please let us know what we can do! :-*

Tried calling but could not get through, we are here for anything needed and could be there in less than ten hours, just let us know what we can do.

John and I were already kicking around the idea of a benefit run or something within minutes of getting the news. If a motel is needed I can help, anything that is needed right now I can help with, just let me know.

If you read this Don and Lori, my thoughts and prayers are with you, and I am so very sorry this has happened, but so very glad you are still with us.

I really missed you guys this weekend but knew I would be wheeling with you again soon, words cannot express how much I would be missing you guys if never to see again.

And I give thanks you are still here with us.

I found out about an hour ago as well. They are in our prayers here as well, I'll try to keep everyone up to date with the info I find out as well. They are about 2 1/2 hours from me, seems so close yet so far away. THANK GOD that they are OK!!
