Here I am laying on the floor and I grabbed whatever I could grab to cover up with, blankets and stuff off the furniture and that.

I said don't hang up..whatever you do, don't hang up. And I told him my predicament. I said I'm going to die unless you get someone out here to help me. And I told them where I was, and my gosh, she did--she hung in there.

We went up and visited him and slept on the floor with him. He had blankets and pillows, linens, but no bed. Priest will probably kill me for telling you this, but he used boxes and stuff as tables. He had a small TV and a VCR to watch game films. It was very humbling.

We are hoping for donations in the form of medical supplies, mattresses and blankets because many victims can only cover themselves with sarongs to stay warm and are sleeping on thin sheets of paper.

He was always willing to listen to whatever you had to say. We had a tight floor. [When Colby passed away] we helped each other get through it.

They were wrapped up in blankets. They couldn't clap.
