Ted Jardine barely escaped the Valley Fire. Forced to flee on foot when his car caught fire. Panicked and hyperventilating with asthma, Ted got lost in the smoke and 30 foot flames. On the wings of love, Ted made to the main road where he was blessed to find firemen who drove him to safety. Ted lived alone in Lawson Valley for 40 yrs. His rented small home has suffered extensive damage and has no power or well water as 4 power poles; 1 with transformer burned down. He won’t be able to return home anytime soon. Right now, Ted needs all of our love and support to buy a vehicle. Whether you remember Ted from PB/LJ or not, please help support our local brother and friend.  All funds raised will help Ted get back on his feet and will surely give him hope! Please pray for Ted as the coming months will be tough! Thank you all so very much from the bottom of my heart.
