Help Frank Rebuild After Tornado Devastation

Donation protected
Hello Everyone,

My father, Frank Gugel, at 74 years old, whom most of you know, uprooted out of Wake Forest, NC last year and moved in with my sister, a few miles outside of Three Rivers, MI. Since he has been there, trying to get into his own place, he has been hit with one hurdle after another. To make matters worse, yesterday on 3/6/26, an F3 tornado ripped through three towns, leaving nothing but destruction, broken hearts, and loss of life behind it. My father was renting a storage unit in Three Rivers that contained his entire house/life of Ridgefield, CT memories, family heirlooms, furniture, clothing, tools, and priceless items that were taken from him by Mother Nature. His face when he came to what was left of his unit today, along with many others, was nothing but indescribable loss.

My sister and I will do everything we can to get our father back on his feet, but we can't do it alone. Aside from my actual family, my friends, my battle buddies know that I would do anything for them because family isn't just blood; it's the lifelong connection I've shared with you.

So please help me, help my dad get back on his feet so he can enjoy his life once again, and put behind him these traumatic memories.

God Bless You!
