While I have never met Elaine I must tell about her. She is an "angel on earth". After reading now about how she is helping the helpless I just had to write my experience about her. We lost our home to Sandy (we live on the Jersey shore) and I had wrote about it (with many others) on TTOL. I received a PM from Elaine who offered her home in Connecticut for us to stay in while we were homeless. Being a distance away, we were unable to accommodate her great offer. We ended up staying in north Jersey with relatives. Now Elaine didn't even know us, we never met. Yet here was someone with a heart of gold to offer us her home. We survived and made it through all of it but to this day, my husband and I still talk about that wonderful woman who lives in SXM and offered us her home. Elaine, we will never forget you and your generosity. You may not even remember this but we will certainly never forget it. Some day I hope we will meet so I can thank you in person. God bless you.
