“We still can’t believe the devastation that is happening over there.

“It’s really breaking our hearts to see a place that still means so much and we still call home in disarray.

“I just wanted to say good luck with everything.

“It’s good to see the community come together and helping each other out.

“Stay positive guys and stay safe."
