Storm Debby Destroyed Our Home - Help Us Reclaim Our Lives

We never imagined we would find ourselves in this position—reaching out to our friends, family, and community for help. But here we are, humbled by circumstances beyond our control, and we’re hoping that our story touches your heart and inspires you to lend a hand.

Arlene and I have always valued our privacy, facing life’s challenges together with quiet strength. But the recent tornado that tore through our community has left us in a situation we simply can’t handle alone. The storm was unforgiving, leaving a path of destruction that we’re still trying to navigate.

In a matter of minutes, the life we’ve built was turned upside down. Our home, a place filled with love, memories, and the promise of many more years together, was severely damaged. The roof that sheltered us now lets in the rain, the walls that held our pictures and keepsakes now bear cracks and scars, and the foundation we once stood on so firmly has been shaken.

This isn’t just a house. It’s our home. It’s where we’ve laughed, cried, and built our life together. It’s where we planned to grow old, surrounded by the memories we’ve created. Losing it would be more than just a financial blow; it would be a loss of everything we hold dear.

We know that times are tough for everyone, and it’s not easy to ask for help. But we’re reaching out because we have no other option. We’re not just asking for donations—although every contribution would mean the world to us. What we’re truly asking for is a show of support from those who care, those who believe in the power of community, and those who know that even the smallest act of kindness can make a difference.

If you can, please consider sharing our story with others. If you’re able to donate, know that your generosity will go directly towards rebuilding our home and restoring a sense of normalcy to our lives. And if all you can do is send a prayer or a positive thought our way, know that we are grateful for that too.

We’re trusting that with your help, we can weather this storm. Thank you for taking the time to read our story, and for being a part of our journey.

With heartfelt gratitude,

Can you consider donating just $50 to help rebuild our home?

We appreciate all help, it will help us cover the expenses that come with being outside of our home and restoring it to what we once had.
