Raise the Roof - Day 1 Part 2

We were off to a good start today. It is amazing how the Lord brings together the right people at the right time. Billy, who none of us knew, was here before I was out of bed. He heard about our little project through our friend Bill Messer and asked if he could help too because he thinks roofing is fun (God bless him). Even though he didn't know us, he knew just about everyone else who came to help out. By the time the shingle lifting crane thing arrived we had plenty of people on the roof to unload them. Amongst our tireless workers were Chuck Murrin, Buster Grabb, his sister Eileen Trump (a faithful helper to Mom), Bill Messer and his brother-in-law Billy, and last but not least Lewy Hough. We all worked well together and yes we actually did have a lot of fun. We were blessed with skilled and hard working volunteers, and Mark was pleased with the progress we made today.
