Students from King’s College who assisted the Tomashunis family with flood clean-up.
If anyone asks us, “Do you believe in angels?” we will definitely say “Yes!”
We saw them in person.
They were summoned by our dear friend and neighbor Cindy Lynch, a Kings College alumnus. Cindy called the King’s College Volunteer Office, and Tammy Fritz and Lee Ann Mazurick recruited and joined 12 students who arrived at our home, equipped with full body coverage, masks and gloves and got to work. They emptied all of our basement contents on to the front lawn, ready for pickup. They worked so hard in the mud and stench lifting heavy furniture, rugs, books, clothing, appliances and on and on.
They would come to us every so often gently holding a family photo or religious article, and say “I thought you might want to save this.”
There were some who worked one day and others who worked two. One of the students, Melissa, I believe, said “Please let us know if there is any way we could help you better.”
Our angels of mercy are pictured above, and we are listing their names, in no particular order. I hope we got them right.
Thanks to them and many other folks who are helping us get through the event.
Tammy Fritz, Lee Ann Mazurick, Melissa Loomis, Patrick Wade, Donny Dennison, Matt Cicconi, Jonathan Beakman, Casey O’Brien, Kevin Tomaszewski, Tyler Baran, Zackery Burgess, Fercandy Jusito, John Sanchez, Robert Santopietro.
