Spoke with my Mom . Still no word of the fate of my aunt & cousins in Punta Gorda . Guess it'll be a while before the phones are up and working again . Praying ...
Good news. My Aunt was able to call my Dad. They are without power and other utilities, but came through the storm relatively unscathed. They had a tree come down and through a window, and other minor damage, but other than that they are OK.
sushiman, I hope you will receive similar word soon. We will continue to pray for your family, as well as all the otehrs who are impacted.
Thanks for your prayers.
