KygMan, sorry to hear about the fire your step daughter and her family experienced. Keep this in mind, there maybe a number of material things that cannot be replaced, but no matter what was lost, we are very thankful nobody was hurt.

We'll keep her and her family in our prayers.

I will certainly put in a special prayer for your step daughter and her family. I'm also very thankful nobody was hurt.

Just got home from the "fire scene". SIL started to start cleaning things up today but insurance lady said to wait just in case they decide to send an investigator to look at it. I have a big square screen used to sift clumps of dirt out of garden soil. We're going to use that to see what we can find in the ashes. Everything seems to be working out. I'm going to help them find the value of some of the lost items. Slowly but surely! Karla, he said getting replacement coins wouldn't be the same and he might just go without instead of that. Appreciate the comments and prayers.

A true military man--sense of humor--a Must! Sometimes a necessity to cope with stressful times i.e. his past occupation.

First off, my condolences for his loss. Second, a cheer for covered insurance and only material loss--no limbs or life lost. That's the most precious one of all.
