Angels of mercy after storm

To the editor:

Hurricane Ivan paid a visit to my wife and me on Sept. 16, collapsing our garage on my car, lifting the roof off my shop and ripping the roofing shingles off the house. Trees lay everywhere. It looked like a war zone.

Two angels of mercy, Larry LaFave of Jackson and his brother, Leonard LaFave of Onaway, Mich., came down to our home, got my car out, repaired the shop roof, cleared trees and covered my roof with plastic. They did everything that I could not do, as I am totally disabled.

I am rich to have friends like this.
