Yes, this is very unfortinate for mike. Alot of Cedar Rapids here is completelly devastated, something like 3500 homes gone to the floods. I got called the other night by Marty. I had asked him to call me when he had heard anything from or about mikes place. Its a bad deal here for alot of people and I wish I could help you out Mike, but im kind of hands tied right now financial wise, as my parents also lost everything in Palo, and are staying with me. They atleast have there cars here though, but all there belongings are gone. Its a really hard time for anyone involved, and all are in mine and amanda's prayers!!! You'll make it through Mike!! Let me know if there is any other way i can help brother!!!

guys you are true people here , so far "mikes" paypal is up to over 500.00 bucks and growing minute by minute, and it has been around 12 hours since it has started.. thanks alot guys and jerry thanks for donating the engine and andy brown for the pipe and header for the valvola.. you all are top notch and this will really help out mike.. and as for everyone else in the cr area, my prayers are with you all .. also i was tired when i did the post and got kinda goofy typing it, all i meant about the fees is , whatever is taken in they will charge fees so whatever is left after the fees is what "we" will be donating to mike and family.. thanks to all and god bless.

Paypal sent plus extra for paypal fee.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to Mike and everyone who is effected by the storms, we know first hand how devistating mother nature can be when a tornado hit our house last month. Even though we had minor damage, it still lets you know mother natures fury can hit anywhere and effect anyone.

I know it's not much, but I would like to add a complete set of our dvds to your raffle to help any way possible. PM me your address to send to.

Terry,

Ihad 32 inches of water in my home in 1986 from the Arkansas River in an area that was NEVER supposed to flood. Went into the home with a john boat through the front door. No flood ins. too. It is a very sickening feeling and that young man will need all of the strength and help he can get. Be glad to ship it anywhere in the US !! Never drilled for hardware.
