Recently Al Smith, a Tiger Woods lookalike, lost his home and most of his personal belongings due to fire. He was one of ten other families who lost their homes at the Bordeaux Condominiums in Ocoee, Florida.
In communicating with Smith he shared how he lost almost everything, but he was thankful to have escaped from harm along with his girlfriend's cat, Sugar. Smith still counts his blessings, as the loses could have been even worse.
Al Smith has such a positive attitude for someone who has lost so much. He even hestitated, at first, to share with others about his loss, but then he realized that he would want to know if his friends went through the same thing, so he could help them.
Smith is not shy when it comes to his religious beliefs either. He has been very concerned about the family of the man responsible for the fire, as the man also ended up taking his own life.
According to Dawnn Behrens, who lives in Smith's area, and who also interviewed him, the local Red Cross has been very helpful to all affected by the fire. Currently Smith is living with nearby relatives, and hopes to settle into a new place soon.
Bordeaux Condominiums' fire victims' behalf with “Adopt A Fire Victim” program. An online webcast entertainment fundraiser will begin Wednesday January 13th. Go to myshownetwork for more details.
