Kreitler said the family lost all their bedroom furniture and much of their clothing. She asked especially for double and single mattresses, bed frames, bedding and men’s clothing. Kreitler said the men wear size medium and large shirts, trousers waist 42 by length 30 and waist 32 by length 34, and size 10 shoes.

Any donations will be welcomed, Kreitler said. Contributors may contact her at 675-3326 and she will arrange for transportation of the goods.
