Quotes

John Hughes, regional CEO of the American Red Cross says the best way to help the victims is to donate money. "Money is the best thing people can [give] from here because we can't really transport the food or the clothing. The funds are able to allow us to purchase the items we need."
"It's something you really don't think about. As people in emergency services, every day we don't think about. It's definitely a calling for us" said Whiteheart
"It's a little hard for them to believe. But all in all, I think the reaction they get afterwards is some relief. Because now they have some knowledge and they can take these books and there is a whole list of fraud and scams that are in there, and they can arm themselves with this knowledge and they can prevent themselves from being take advantage of" explained McClure
Neighbor James Young said, "This is a good family. There is not a bunch of mess that goes on around here. There are good people around here and it's just a tragic accident. You can look back and say a lot of things should have been done differently, but it's not going to change anything."
