Judith1005,
Thank you again for the update from Melissa. I'm glad that they are all well and do agree that the material things someday can be replaced but the lives of family and friends is most treasurable. My continued prayers for Krystyna and all her family.

Wanted to let my Secret Angel know that I got my package today. I don't know who you are but thank you so very much! I really like everything that you sent and the dogs love their toys.
I will try to post a pic later.

Got a package today, also. Mine was from Letsquilt and she included some lucious PURPLE fabrics and PURPLE buttons. Also included was a ledger book, a Debbie Mumm pattern book, a cross stitch ornament pattern, a ruler, a yo-yo maker and some of my favorite candy. The picture doesn't do my PURPLE fabrics justice, but trust me - they are gorgeous!!

OMG, Krystyna was my SP a few months ago and what an awesome, awesome person. I felt so blessed to have been on the receiving end on such a wonderful SP partner. Now, it may be necessary for all of us to be a "Best Quilting Pal" for her when she gets things organized again and recovers from her loss. I am definitely in to send her a "Best Quilting Pal" package. We luv u Krystyna and you and your family are in our prayers.

Hi All,
I am collecting quilts for Krystyna to distribute to her community. I live about 30 miles from Long Beach. My first adult home was there, 3 blocks from the beach. My family is safe in NYC but the losses for others is great. I have a lovely quilt from Boom 6 I can spare. I can put together some tops I made of the Mystery Ride. If you can join this collection, pm please. I think 2 groups are also making Krystyna personal quilts. Quilters rock! Stay safe, Dotty

Dotty,

Thank goodness you and yours are safe. My DD/SIL/DGKS in NJ and DS in DE are all safe, but DD is without power. To date nothing has been done in her neighborhood and there is no power, water, food, etc. Gratefully, they have moved in with her in-laws in NJ who have a generator. She is working hard as an RN at a local hospital and says that the ER is constantly full, as are the operating rooms. Still, my kids' houses were spared damage and flooding. My heart goes out to Krystyna. There is a note as to where to send donations (checks) to her, but I'm not sure if we should trust the mail service yet, and can she even cash checks anyway. My boss's husband suffered smoke inhalation on LI when his house caught fire and ended up in the hospital. Talk about pitiful - his wallet was stolen and it HAD to have been by one of the first responders. He was to have left for CA (moving here) last Wed. Obviously that has been postponed - house is uninhabitable for the time being. This is so heartbreaking - I know lots of people in NJ and Long Island, having lived in both places. Cannot get past the choked up feeling for all of them.

Sharon~mail is going to Melissa's parents which is in an unaffected area and K has banking available in other areas than her neighborhood...

I saw somewhere on line that one house had power and put out a power strip with a sign welcoming everyone to charge up their phones...Now that thinking and probably really appreciated.
