Hurricane Florence Victims Obituary
Hurricane Florence is the wettest tropical depression ever in North Carolina. Some areas have received over 30 inches of rain. Officials warned people not to drive through floodwaters, even if they appear shallow. The North Carolina Department of Transportation advised drivers not to travel through the state at this time.
Some of the victims of the storm include a one year old boy who was tragically lost in floodwaters, a man who was trying to plug in a generator, and another infant killed when a tree fell on the family’s mobile home. Other fatalities were from drowning, trees falling, and downed power lines. Not all the victims have been identified yet.
Numerous emergency-relief organizations are currently working to bring aid to the millions of people affected by Florence. The NFL’s Carolina Panthers are selling a t-shirt where all the proceeds will go towards disaster relief. You can purchase the shirt at CAREolinas.com.
The Observer Chronicle has published a list of the disaster-response groups whose Florence relief efforts are in need of support, ranging from local food banks to the Salvation Army to animal shelters. You can access the entire charity list here and choose which specific group or groups you may wish to support.
We invite you to share condolences for the Hurricane Florence victims in our Guest Book.

To the families that lost their loved ones, my prayers and thoughts are with you. There is one thought I want to share with you. When Jesus was on earth with his disciples, he was able to calm the wind with just words of mouth. At Mark 4:40, he commanded the winds to hush. If he can do that, imagine what he would do when he becomes king. This is very reassuring because he will cure all sickness and no more natural disasters. Please take heart.

My heart breaks to hear of all those lost in this disaster. I cant even imagine that pain your families must be going through right now. But whenever grief overwhelms you, try to remember Philippians 4:6, 7. There, it says that if we release our problems in prayer, well receive the peace of God that surpasses all understanding. I truly hope youre able to find comfort in doing so, just as I have. And know that all of your families are in my prayers as well.
September 21, 2018
Sincere condolences to the Family and friends for the loss of your loved one. May you continue to be blessed with his memory and legacy and your hearts be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times you shared together; and may the hope that God's word gives us for those we lost in death be comforting, faith building and encouraging to you (John 6:40)
