Storm Thread

My prayers go out to all who lost there property! I finally got my power back a few minutes ago. I hope and pray for the same for everyone who doesn't have it.

Drove through Leonardo and Atlantic Highlands today. I knew the storm was bad but seeing it first hand really was shocking. Contents of peoples homes at the curb, flooded out stores etc.

I really feel bad for all the people that were severely affected by this storm. At the same time I feel helpless to help them. There has to be some needs out there not being met and I think a lot of people would like to volunteer to help these families out.

If any of you on the site need some help or know of a family that does lets try and get organized to help them. Just cant sit here knowing what people are going through. Got to do something.

Bob and Adam, I am truly sorry for your loss and or troubles. I hope things return to normal soon. Gerry? The American Red Cross can use the help. Or if you listen or call to NJ 101.5 FM on your radio. A lot of folks are calling in to give help. The main thing is to help the American Red Cross and The Salivation Army.

Gerry? I think RFA and SSFFF.NET are set up for Pay Pal and such. What if they do a relief fund type of thing? If it works out, tell me. I will write to my friend in Delaware who has a huge email list and ask him to help. Plus I will write to everyone I know. Maybe RFA and SSFFF.NET can get the money raised to the Red Cross or something. Maybe if your marina is ok, we can do a clothing drive ? A canned food drive? One woman who called into NJ 101.5 said she had warm clothing and was in Union Beach and I think the radio station put her on the right track to help.

Lets do this!!!!
