Nicole and I would like to thank you all for your thoughts, prayers and generosity. I really had no idea that Paul had put this together until late last night. When he told me that he did, I was so grateful to the point that I broke down in tears. I can tell you that these last 2 days have been a living nightmare and knowing that I had friends that cared for my situation is all that has gotten me by.
Since 5 pm on Wednesday watching my apartment complex in a full blown inferno, I've been on a 48 hour marathon to get a status on our pets ever since.
It ended in tragedy today when a vet called to confirm that our cat and dog were found dead from smoke inhalation. They were found asleep laying next to each other.
For those of you who didn't know Pennington and Boo...
This is penny:
And you can all ask Mike Hansen about my relationship with Boo (the cat). Sorry - no online pictures at this time.
I'm saddened not to have these pets with me anymore. They were my life blood and my girlfriend's greatest companions.
Regarding this site and donation...
I certainly do not expect anyone to donate money. Words of encouragement are enough for me to hear. However, those of you who have donated money, I can tell you that I am truly touched. It is an amazing gesture you have shown us.
Once again, thanks to all for your generosity and kind words. We will keep you all posted on our road to recovery.
Justin and Nicole

Sorry to hear about your lil' ones Justin, my heart goes out to you both. Hope you get back on your feet as soon as you can.
I live and work in Conshy and saw the extent of the fires first-hand. I actually enquired about moving to those apartments a couple of weeks back. It scared me to think this could've easily happened to me. I really don't know what I'd do without my wife and dogs.
All the best,
Joe.

Joe,
Such a small world we live in. I viewed your website and see that you work for Greg at 20nine Studios. I helped him out on the JLowe site last year.Anyways, I wanna thank you for your concern. If we decide to move back to Conshy, we should grab a drink at the Pub or some lunch at Boathouse.
Best,
J

Wow, small world is right!
Unfortunately we're moving out of PA on the 30th August – we're heading back to Indiana. I'm gonna miss the Pub beer and the Boathouse food though! If you're in the area before that and feel up to a drink shoot me an email, if not I wish you and Nicole the best of luck. Oh, and 20nine are looking for an AD and GD in case you're interested... just check the job board up top ^ :)

i know exactly what you are going through right now, allow yourself to accept the unconditional support of your friends and remember how lucky you are to have them in your life [at least once a day!]only a matter of time now, things will be back to normal, have patience. the good that comes from a situation like this is seeing the true character of your friends, it's a good feeling!
