Lightning strike devastates home

Donation protected
This is my Aunt Lorrie, my father's sister, and her husband Bill.  They are 89 and 91, and have been married 70 YEARS (amazing no?!).  On June 11th their house was hit by lightning, causing a massive hole in their roof and a devastating fire, making their house unlivable.  Thankfully, they made it out safely.  They are a wonderful couple who have raised 9 children, and have been enjoying their retirement years in Florida.  Although they don't have much financially, they are full of love and generosity.  We so appreciate the quick response of Atlantic Beach PD and Jacksonville Fire and Rescue Station 55, Engine 58, Engine 41, Engine 29, Ladder 50, Ladder 30 and US Naval Station Mayport Ladder 231 to their home.  Now it's cleanup time.  My aunt and uncle are such wonderful people, I'm hoping the community can come together and help support them in this time of need. 

As I live in North Carolina, the funds will be withdrawn by my cousin (their son) and his wife Lizzie in Florida, who will use the funds to assist them with living expenses until their house is repaired, as well as pay for any repairs not covered by insurance. Thank you for any contribution you can make!
