Depends. Probably $2-5 K.
Nice money to fall from sky but hardly the lottery. Her deductible to fix her roof is probably higher.

This happened over 60 years ago and Guinness Book of Records had a photo of the women lying in the bed showing the burn marks on her thigh with the rock sitting on the bed.
NO! I did not look for a link......
