[Highland Park] TIM AND NATHAN HAZELWOOD DONATION UPDATE
by Taryn Belmonte 13 Dec '13

13 Dec '13

Hi there! First of all, we got such an amazing response from the HP community. You guys are an incredible group of people!! Some info: A lovely woman named Cindi from the HP list serve has offered to help me tomorrow to pick up goodies for Tim and Nathan. She will be coming around in the morning (between 10 and 11) with her daughter (and i believe daughter's boyfriend) to collect your goodies. You can simply leave your bag on your front porch or by the front door at that time. If there is anyone who won’t be ready between 10 and 11am tomorrow morning (Saturday) then that is ok. I can either come by between 2 and 3pm on Saturday or even another day. For the record, while Tim and Nathan are my most serious case – the other 9 families in Hazelwood that I am close with – will also make really great use of your donated items. They told me recently that times are quite “tight” and cleaning products are one of the first things to get erased from the list of necessities. So…bring it on! Thank you so much for your generosity. This is truly going to make their Christmas! I am excited to deliver your thoughtful gifts. I will certainly be in touch with everyone for a follow-up on how it all went. I’ll even try to get a photo or 2. If you haven't already, please send me your address for goodie pick-ups and which day/time you prefer. Thanks!! Warmly, Taryn

Hello everyone, Tom Burns just completed a job for me involving painting, plastering and fixing a ceiling and wall area damaged by a roof leak. He came every day for a week until the job was complete. He was always on time, was polite and easy to work with-- and the finished product was just great! I heartily recommend Tom! Susie
