Bill & Kathleen Cline Clean Up Fund
Donation protected
For any of you that have ever met my grandparents, you would agree they are the sweetest people in the whole world. First of all, they INSIST you call them Granny and Grampy even if they've only known you five minutes. Second, they are pillars of the Wimberley community, giving generously to many local charities and foundations. As well as any individual who needs a helping hand.
Right now Bill and Kathleen need YOUR help! As most of you know, Saturday night, during the worst flood to ever happen in Central Texas history, my grandparents house filled 12 feet with water as they were trapped in their attic for over 6 hours. By the grace of God their house did not get swept away with the raging river like many others did. If it had, my grandparents would not have made it. While my family frantically called all the local shelters to try and find them, local search and rescue volunteers made several efforts to find them. Thank god they went back once last time to check and found my grandparents wearing their Santa and Mrs. Claus outfits to stay dry and warm! We are so grateful they are alive and well, our grandparents are the greatest part of our family and without them none of us would be who we are today.
Our family has been blessed with friends far and wide so naturally people who aren't able to lend a hand by physically being here have been asking how THEY can contribute. Thats why we set up this GoFundMe. Whatever you donate on here will be to cover the cost of meals and water for all those who are here covered in mud all day long helping our family recover and clean up what we can. Anything left over will be donated to other families in need. Because there are SO MANY other families in need!!!
Lots of you have spent many beautiful summer days playing on their riverfront property, kayaking, fishing, jumping off the rope swing, enjoying crawfish boils, river blessings, swinging in the hammock or just soaking up the sun while wading in the shallow end. Or maybe you've shared a Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner with these beautiful souls as they opened their doors and their hearts every year to anyone who didn't have a place to go. Whatever the case, this beyond generous and loving couple needs your help now. More than anything they need able bodies and helping hands but if you live far away and want to help...donating is just as sweet. Whatever you can give, our family greatly appreciates it.
Love,
The Cline/Carolan Family
