Dear Editor:

My name is David Shuman and recently my home was destroyed by fire. Both myself and my wife lost everything we owned. Our children did not fare much better.

We have been living with my brother Alan during this time. We are almost ready to move into our new home. Everything is going fine with the home.

I just wanted to take some time to thank everyone who helped us in our loss. The help we received from family, friends and those who wanted to be left nameless was tremendous and very thoughtful.

I want to extend my heartfelt thank you to each and every one. Thank you and God Bless.
