			<description><![CDATA[David...I am SOOOO sorry to hear about this. Many years ago we lost our home, many of our possessions and all of my fabric. People kept telling us it was just "stuff" and it can be replaced. That may be true but you have such a personal connection to special fabrics and quilts...it just isn't that easy. My heart hurts for you...I feel your pain. I am thankful YOU are okay physically and know what you will be going through emotionally. My prayers are with you. Big Hugs, Cindy]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I saw this terrible news this morning on Ricky's Facebook post. I wrote a comment there and I want to write here as well. David, you are and will continue to be in my thoughts and my prayers. I am so sorry this awful explosion caused all of this damage and loss. But, I'm so glad that you weren't home when it happened. I know when something like this happens many say something like "just thankful it didn't hurt you, things can be replaced." I am not going to say something like that - of course, I was elated to learn that you weren't home when this happened; but, I also know how hard it is when you've lost things that are precious to you. Pictures, family things, little things that may not mean anything to anyone else but you and of course, your beautiful quilts. I know that you have the most extensive collection of Harry Potter things that exists anywhere. I know your passion for your collection.I hope the fire didn't reach the room with your collection. We all are here to support you!]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Fire can be so devastating! My prayers are with David. I experienced a loss of a substantial amount of my quilt fabric in a fire a few years ago, and although I was so very grateful that no one was injured. There have been many rough moments as I considered a fabric that I needed and realized that I no longer had it! Things, of course, can be replaced, but still there is a process of recovery and healing!]]></description>
