Tragedy In Waco, Texas!!

[cjs]

Boy, did the headlines get me scurrying for the atlas to see how close friends are to Waco. Allison and Bill & Jane, thank God are quite a ways. And the other friends we know are far away also.

Can't believe the news this week - it's getting hard to turn on the news every morning.

All that destruction of nearby homes, too! I cannot imagine the pain those people are going through.

That was truly horrific! This week has been hard - my heart is just so broken for all those people affected by both.

It could have been a lot worse---I think only 10-15% of the explosives went up!! Several firemen have not been found---they may never be. They were fighting the fire at ground zero.

Oh my gosh!

I have been watching it all....even tonight. This has been a tragic week for our country!

Like Jean, I immediately pulled up a map to see how close friends were to the tragedy. I'm glad you are all okay.

I am happy to say that the grocery retailer I work for responded extremely quickly to the disaster, sending a "mobile kitchen" with volunteers and supplies. The mobile kitchen has provided three meals a day and water to first responders, evacuees, volunteers, support staff..pretty much everyone. I'm just really proud to work for a company like HEB that gives back to our communities especially in times of crisis.
