this is horrible, i’m glad no one was hurt, i hope this family gets all the help they need.
Ok i know this family an im so sorry to hear this happen an glad they r ok. An im gonna help as much as possible but i totally get what was said about the insurance.. I want to explain.. She meant that she has been thro this b4 an had insurance but she had a hard time even with insurance so she could amagine what it would be like without it. An that she would help out as much as possible. So i dont think there was anything judgemental about it so plz read thro the lines an christain or not this family just lost everything so let be a community an help. but i do have to say the lord dont judge so we dont need to either.

Ever heard of don’t judge a book by its cover
and Im the one “making a Mountain out of a molehill”
I already apologized for the statement about the insurance, I know where this family is, i lost my home and everything but the clothes on my back a few years ago, I did have insurance but that never touched what my family lost. I truly feel for this family, and whatever I can do to help I will be more then glad to help them. The Red Cross only pays for three days in a hotel ( or at least that’s what they did for us) and weather they had insurance or not.
This was not the place for everyone to be throwing around negative and hate remarks.
My prayers are with this family and Thanks for the update on what the family needs and where to take donations
Thanks Kathy………Lets all hope that “renea” has no influence on how people will come together for this family. I hope they receive more than they will ever need!!!!!!!!!!!
To the family……….. You are in my prayers, hoping that you recover from this ordeal and I will be sending things your way…….GOD bless you all……….
The church number is 251 296 0437..,,,Again the church is located off Old Atmore Rd.225 Fowler Lane Flomaton Alabama
There was three of them that lived there. The Red Cross has put them up in a motel room.The guy needs 32-34 pants and xlarge shirts, underware-xlarge boxers.The baby is a year old and needs everything, and the lady needs dresses 12 or 14–pants 14 and large shirts
To any one wanting to donate to this family you can drop off items at Holy Ground Holiness Church located off Old Atmore Rd. 225 Fowler lane.
The baby wears 18 to 24 months.. a boy
**renea** YOU are making a mountain out of a molehill………..
You stated “my the looks of the Trailer, im sure the family didnt have any type of insurance” with MY being BY I am assuming?
OK, your statement did sound like you were juding by the looks of the mobile home that they did not have insurance.
NO WHERE did “really” say anything about this family DID or DID NOT have insurance OR NOT needing assistance.
I hope that all the readers of this story totally ignore your comments.
It’s NOT YOUR place to let everyone know to put thier money back in thier pocket.
I do not know this family, but am willing to help them anyway I can because as a CHRISTIAN, that is what I do.
Please, NORTHESCAMBIA folks, lets help this family and ignore the drama that one person can cause.
WILLIAM, will you please list what this family might need. Children?
THANKS!!
To “Really” I am sorry If I offended you, I guess that was the only part of the comment you read. I truly feel for this family, and wanted to know how to help. But seems you know them and they must be doing just fine I’ll put my money back in my pocket and let my everyone know they dont need our help.
I am glad that no one was home at the time of this fire. I hope that the people are able to get what they need to re-establish themselves somewhere else. The Red Cross can only do so much because many times their funds are limited. Therefore, would someone please post what these people are in need of….. God Bless all of you.
To renea just by the looks they had no insurance. Ever heard of don’t judge a book by its cover
the family wasn’t at home at the time of the fire..
I also understand what it’s like. Our mobile home was destroyed in a fire in 2004; 1 month after Ivan had laid waste to Escambia and Santa Rosa County.
I know that it’s hard to start over from scratch but a life can never be replaced. I’m just glad to hear that no one was hurt.
my the looks of the Trailer, im sure the family didnt have any type of insurance. Please keep us posted on how or where people can donate to this family. I know first hand what its like to lose everything in a fire and we had insurance, My prayers to the family
Can you imagine? Losing everything you own.
Let me take this opportunity to remind everyone to donate your furniture and household items and clothes to the Red Cross so they always have inventory to provide needed items to those who lose their homes and possessions to fire.
