Thank you everyone for your thoughts and prayers it means everything to us. It's hard for me to say what they really need because right now they don't have any room for the household items. They we're pretty simple people who didn't have much but they had everything that they needed.
If anyone has a Snap On Battery charger and a Craftsman batter charger for sale please let me know. He lost those so he has no way to charge his tools and I haven't been able to find a local Snap On charger by itself. He did lose all his old MM&FF and Super Ford magazines so if anyone has some of that older stuff let me know how much you want for them.
My mom is such a simple person she had no fancy clothes and if she had something nice she had for a long time. My cousins spent hours rummaging through the ashes and right before sundown they we're able to find her wedding ring which is all she wanted.
I am going to look into getting a storage somewhere so I can just put in all these items people are offering. My cousins are donating a king size sleigh bed new mattress and bedroom set when they want it. And I am going to buy them whatever they need once they are able to find a place. The outpouring support from everyone is so overwhelming it's hard to grasp.
Thanks
Rudy

It's somewhat common. Would be a good idea for everyone to take 2 minutes to read this link. I'm pretty religious about cleaning the screen on mine, but I'm going to do it now even if there is hardly anything on it.

Will y'all have room for the dryer, or do you want me to hold onto it a bit longer. It's just hanging out in my garage, so no biggie either way.

I just wanted to update you all and thank everyone for all the support and help the DFwstangs community has done. The outpouring support and help from everyone is truly overwhelming. My parents are doing better by the day and with everyone's support it's amazing how such a terrible situation can bring the best out of family friends and complete strangers. For that I am so grateful. Let this be a reminder to cherish every moment we have with friends and family because I can't fathom where I'd be today had that day been any worse.

Hopefully, insurance will treat them nice.
