Hi! everyone! I just received this from Pam Kirkwood who does the BHS Loop and two Burbank High Grads sisters from Class of 64 and Class of 65 lost their home in the California Wildfire that hit Slymar and destroyed the mobile home park they lived in. They lost everything.
Hi there Loopers...
We would imagine you are all making ready for next week's Thanksgiving Holidays...We would ask you to remember all of those who have lost so much in last weekend's devistating fires here in Southern California.
Specifically, we have 2 classmates who lost their entire home in a matter of minutes last Saturday night. Cheryl Dibble BHS '64 and her sister Pam Dibble '65 lived at the Mobile Home Park in Sylmar that was almost totally destroyed...Pam and Cheryl got out with only the clothes on their backs, their pets and a couple of important items. Everything is GONE!
I just talked to Cher this morning. They are temporarily staying with an old friend from High School, Phill Hayes '65...Cher related to me the horrors of Saturday night...What a nightmare for all...They will probably be going back tomorrow to sift through the rubble and ashes...
I told her that in these times, we all have to help each other. She said that "prayers" were what they needed most and I told her that went without question. I told her that I would alert the "Loop" and we would see what happens.
Cher was able to buy some clothes and the insurance company told her to keep all of her receipts...We are thinking that probably the most useful things to help them get back on their feet would either be cash donations or gift cards...If any of you feel you can help, please send your donations to:
Cheryl and Pam Dibble
c/o Phill Hays
26588 Shakespeare Lane
Stevenson Ranch, CA 91381
Cher can be reached on her cell phone:
(818) 205-5876
They managed to get their laptop out when they evacuated and can receive email at cwolf11@ca.rr.com
Not sure how often they check it, as they are still pretty much in shock and are busy contacting insurance companies and figuring out what to do next.
Thank you for your prayers and any help you might be able to give, Loopers...
Take care and a Blessed Thanksgiving to you and yours...
Love, Pam and Jon
