HURRICANE IAN

Hi, we at Coldwell Banker, Longboat Key and St Armands are trying to help our ROCKSTAR assistant, Ashley Lodes. She lives in Port Charlotte and got hit by Ian. She is a single mom of two young boys and a sweet fur baby. The back of her home is gone, and a large tree fell across her home. All roads are either flooded, closed or no longer exist. They currently cannot be evacuated until the water recedes. The Myakka River has risen and flooded Interstate 75. Authorities said that, in both directions, I-75 is now closed from mile marker 179 to mile marker 191. Reroutes are more than 60 miles away in Brandon and 50 miles away in Fort Myers.

Anything you can do to help this family would be appreciated. Even $1.00 would help. Can't wait for FEMA to respond. Can't get to them or reach them by phone. No power, cell or internet service.

Please pray for all in southwestern Florida.

Thank you.

Ashley, we all at the office love and care for you.
