We should say prayers for Washington/N.Oregon State flood

I hear that some areas may flood for a few more days while the snow melts. I call Gina and James from Ocean Pacific and all lines are busy. Andy of 1st Courtesy is there too. I know a lot of others need our prayers, If you know any who posts here on the NotRot please post their names so we can add them to our prayers.

Re: Gina just call from Ocean Pacific she wants everyone

to know that they do not have any electricity. Something happened to the Bonniville Dam. She is just above the Washington/Oregon boarder. From where she is at to New Port Oregon (200-250 miles) has no electricity. She was driving while we talked. She said that she had to drive 60 miles before she found electricity. I asked if she had water in her house and she said no that he house was high enough. She was trying to grasp the amount of flooding and damage when she said "Oh my gosh this is bad really bad. Oh my gosh there is the army, this has to be very bad if they are here." She said to tell everyone that it will be days before they will get there electricity back. She is sorry but she cannot pay any one at this time, she said that they have emergency money to handle time like this but the banks cant take her money because they don't have any electricity. She hopes everyone will be fine. " I told her that I would post her concerns on the Notary Rotary. "She ask me to tell everyone that they will get everyone paid as soon as they can.

For this area it is the worse they have ever had.
She asked for us to pray not just for her but for the old and those in hospitals. "Oh it is bad" she kept saying. She wants me to tell you thank you for your prays.

Poor Gina. It wasn't too long ago that they lost their electricity from storms. I cannot imagine anyone worrying about getting their money from OP as they are the best paying company I work for! I just hope they stay safe.

My brother lives in the Blue Mountains in North Eastern Oregon. Sunday it snowed so hard and fast they almost didn't make it home. The roads were being closed. Haven't heard from him since (I know he made it home)

Thank you all, for your prayers. I'm proud to be a part of such a caring community. Hang in there Gina, James and the rest of our WA/OR folks.
