Galbo's UWP Flood Fund
Melanie talked to Ron on August 16th, and here's what we learned:
"I just got off the phone with Vern (Ron Galbo), everyone is fine, His family and several neighbors are at his house. Like he told Kari, his house got flooded, his parents lost everything and they're not sure of the loss to his sister's house. He has electricity but no AC and his cell phone service and internet are down [although a later post mentioned he got that back now]. He apologizes for not responding to messages. He needs lots of prayers. All of them were in a no-flood zone so no flood insurance. They've had 30 inches of rain in 2 days!!! He said to thank everyone for their concern and thoughts. Loves you all!! He's promised to keep in touch and let me know what's going on. I'll update when he does."
While Ron did not ask for a Go Fund Me page, we figured with his family having lost their homes and his flooded, maybe we can provide a little help over the next few weeks before some (hopefully) federal funds can kick in (no idea how that works!)
