This GoFundMe page has been created by the administrators of the OC Facebook Group.  We have sad news to share with all of you.  Our good friend and OC administrator, Julie Wuest, has suffered a devastating loss due to the California wildfires.  Her home and her neighborhood were totally destroyed in this tragic disaster.  Last Sunday, ten thousand lightening strikes hit the very dry Coastal Redwood forests and caused fires that overwhelmed the local firefighters.  Despite trying desperately to fight off the flames they finally had to evacuate so as not to be overrun.  Julie was only able to get out a few clothes and things before her home and many others were engulfed. 

It is hard to imagine what it is like to lose 65 years worth of belongings and memories!  Our hearts are breaking for her and we are hoping that this  GoFundMe effort will help Julie get critically necessary items that she lost.  We hope you can open your hearts and assist in getting our friend through this extremely difficult time.  We offer our sincerest appreciation for anything you can give.  Thank you all!
