To the Delta Police Victim Services, the Delta Emergency Social Services,

the Red Cross and the Salvation Army, we are ever so grateful for your advice, counselling and support.

Crystal, a neighbour we had never met, started a page on Facebook the day of the fire and by the next evening donated clothing and household goods were being dropped off.

The local Kinsmen, Kiwanis, TOOBs and Rotary have assisted us greatly as well as the Boundary Bay Lions Club, which actually donated trucks, time and effort to collect donated furniture and deliver it in the rain to our new home on Oct. 1. We are so thankful to the South Delta Baptist Church, my co-workers at Safeway and my parents' friends who have all contributed so much towards us having a home again. This was a horrific experience and we are overwhelmed by the kindness we have received. I know there have been many anonymous donors, so please be assured we are very appreciative.

Treva, Taylor & Devin
