Just wanted to share the good news, that I have been passed on. Prayers still need to be flowing in the Dalke direction!!!
Hello Friends,
I wanted to keep you updated with the happenings of Kevin & Jen. First of all, I can't remember my last note to you so some of this might be a repeat... Secondly, thank you for your prayers these last few months have been tough for all of us but the Dalke's are doing great. So many people have been so generous and helpful. The town of Lewis held a fund-raiser supper and many people from the community came out for that. It's was wonderful to see all the support from friends and strangers. Many people have given to their relief fund set up at the local bank. And many, many car loads of donations have been appreciated.
They moved into a big ranch style house December 1st. The insurance will pay rent for up to a year. The house belongs to friends from church. It's been a nice vacation for the Kev & Jen not to spend every free moment working on the house. The girls are doing great. They still have some fears but that is so normal. Everyday in December was like Christmas in their house with all the gifts. The girls were definitely spoiled. Things have settled down in January. They want to find some normality in this chaotic time.
They have settled with the insurance over the house and now are working on itemizing their belongings... which will take them awhile. They have purchased a house and have contracted it to move it to their land. This house is another "fix it up"er but they are trying to be smarter and wiser the second time around. I haven't seen the new house yet. Hopefully, this weekend as Dalia (their youngest) turns 5. She is hoping for a kitten... not for sure if it will happen.
Thanks for all you have done to help them... to see them taken care of has done by heart good.
Love you all, Di
