The following people I want to thank for helping me to obtain the two story house to replace the "pink house" that collapsed. Thank you for giving to a worthy cause!

Marianna White
Thomas and Sandra Wicker
Jimmy and Nancy Glover
Priscilla Heard
Mickey Wade
Dell Martin
Judge David Barfield
Duane and Cynthia Blackmore
Kathy Myers/church
FUMC-Friendship Class
Thomas Baird
Jim Linzy---he helped alleviate my tax bill.

     Various restaurants in Temple fed the people at the Rose Garden following the collapse. Richard Therriault and Jason Vandiver along with the City Council members really showed their support and compassion during this disaster.
     We also want to thank the Temple Fire Department for literally being on the spot when the house collapsed. Thanks to them there were no casualties. One fireman rescued a cat named Spooky who's paw was trapped between the floor and the wall when the house fell. Spooky is doing fine even though her paw is slanted.
     There are quite a few donors who wish to remain anonymous but your contribution(s) are very much appreciated. We are grateful to everyone who helped us.


I'm still digging through my notes and will be adding more names to the list. I don't want to forget anyone who contributed to salvaging the Rose Garden!
