A female senior citizen who lives in Oklahoma City Oklahoma is thankful to be alive when the Oklahoma City Police Department managed to evacuate her from being burned to death one week ago. The female senior whose name was not mentioned lived in her three story building for just over 60 years was burned to the ground. The elderly female lost four of her dogs in the fire. Jason Yarbrough who is the director of the Oklahoma Baptist Disaster Relief along with volunteers are assisting the wildfire victim has no insurance to assist her in getting her basic needs met at this time. I am hoping the wildfire victim will find a new home to replace the home that she lost in a wildlife soon. Link is kfor.com/news/local/old...

Some people said that it is better to let the thieves steal things in the house than being burned down. I am glad that they are going to help her.

I am in agreement with you that sometimes is better to have thieves steal material items from inside a home than losing them in a fire. Churches are very useful in assisting the needy during disasters.

That is very, very sad. Many people I think don't have insurance.

It is very depressing that some residents who lose their homes in disasters do not have insurance due to lack of money.

That is very true since it breaks my heart to lose a dog or a cat.
