Horrible news...

I got an awful phone call from Mark this morning. It seems that there was a terrible accident with the moving van... there was a fire in the trailer and everything we had on the truck is completely lost. They told Mark not to even bother meeting them to sift through things to see what could be saved because it was so far gone.

There will be some money from insurance to cover things. But there are just so many things that we cannot replace. All the things that were my Daddy's and Uncle Lyle's are just gone forever. I had my scrap books with me so that is good, but it is just so hard to think about all that we have lost.

It will take weeks to get it all organized in a list as to what we actually lost.
Mark is still in Marion at this point in time. He has been talking to the insurance company and trying to finish up the last bit of clean up. We are hoping that he will be able to get on the road yet today. I just need him to be here right now.
