I was worried that I might log in and read that a fellow 'stanger's house was destroyed in the fires.

I believe this is Don's car. I might be wrong.

That is Don's mustang and Donna was filming. You can get more information about Don's car at http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2450734. He has a lot of racing video's on the site also.

I found this aerial photo today of the Westwood area of Rancho Bernardo. Check out how many homes are gone. Ours is the one with the red line around it.

My prayers go out to Don and his family.

I would help more but I am already doing all I can for my mother who lost her house a couple months ago (electrical fire) along with everything in it. So I know full well how fires like these can affect your life and those around you.

I hope he had good insurance, that is a help. But it does not always help with the immediate needs... unfortunately.

Now that all the raffles, EBay items have all ended. The total that I have which includes all donations collected came to $16, 965.56!

This could not have been done without all of you; the support from the mustang community has been outstanding. I thank you all for your generosity and know that this is all going to help Don & Donna rebuild their life.

I thank ALL the vendors for their support. The donations accepted by them through the raffles and EBay items brought in $10K (round off number).

I do want to give a big thanks to Elisa & Eric for her support and using her web site (Modularfords.com) to help raise donations. Their were a big help in raising donations.

Thanks to themustangsource.com, allfordmustangs.com, militarystangs.com, whitemustangregistry.com for supporting links on your sites. If I forgot anyone, I’m sorry.

Again, thank you to all for your support for Don & Donna.

Ed
