Fire fund for Dedra Smith's Home

My home burned to the ground last week and thankfully there were no deaths.  It stands in ashes due to a fire that spread from an illegal burn down the road.  There is nothing left that is recognizable.  You can still see my home smoldering 3 days later in the picture.   I have been overwhelmed with emotions  at times and sometimes I'm just numb with no words.  I said I would never cry again after some of the things that have happened in my life, but when I saw flames taller than the trees  rolling down my street engulfing homes, I cried ... And cried again as I stood by watching my son scoop up the ashes in a bulldozer and dump them into a dump truck, load after load, day after day.  Many people have asked why I haven't started a go fund me page.   The only truthful answer I can come up with is that I have never had to ask for assistance with money and it is a difficult thing for me to do.  It makes me feel vulnerable.  As the days go on, I realize I need to lay down my fear and pride and let myself be helped by the people who have been reaching out and wanting to help me with this road ahead.  I am genuinely grateful for any amount you give and I pray God blesses you 100 fold.  God will turn these ashes into victory! ❤
