This is OH so minor, but my folks called earlier today and have a tree through their roof - evidently damaged the roof down to the brick walls. I know roofers are backed up from hail damage to roofs, so if you don't mind saying a little Ave that they can repair this quickly with someone who will do them a good job - not a fly by night, in a rush kind of thing. Right now dh and olders are helping them lay tarp, move furniture and catch water till they can get someone to fix it.

It's really not minor - a tree through the roof is a BIG deal!!! Praying your folks are assisted in their efforts to repair it! Thanks be to God neither of them were hurt!!

Oh dear, Janet...all the rain we've been having!

Praying the repair comes soon!

Thank you all for prayers. My dad sounded so much relieved Saturday. It will take a bit of time to get all the repairs done, but the tree/roofing people were out starting work by morning after it happened and nailed down the tarp my dad and dh put up the night of. Last I heard, they were still working on getting the big tree cut down - and two others that were nearby whose root systems were damaged. But seems like everyone is working efficiently and well and my dad sounds more relaxed. Again thanks for these prayers.
