In Chicago and across the Midwest, people are stepping up in support of those affected as recovery continues.
The American Red Cross has sent volunteers to the scene, longtime customers recount memories of a decimated Bears sports bar along a Florida beach and a Chicagoan has started a GoFundMe for a family who evacuated to the city.Family evacuates to Chicago after home in Fort Myers destroyed, friend raises funds, donations
Just last week, Lourdes performed for the first time in front of an audience, singing “Bohemian Rhapsody” while accompanying herself on the piano. A family friend, Nicole Massett, organized an online fundraiser on behalf of the family and has collected donated clothing, some of which is seen in Massett’s home in Chicago on Sept. 30, 2022.
As Mejia evacuated, Massett followed the progress of the hurricane. When she hadn’t heard from Mejia, she made a mental note to check in on her. Then the phone rang. When she heard Mejia’s voice, she remembers asking if they were OK. Mejia said her kids have expressed a lot of anger toward her, both for the fact that they moved to Florida in the first place and for having to leave so soon after arriving. But that’s what being a mom is about, she says.On Friday, the family gathered at Massett’s apartment. The sounds of a Halloween movie and a gentle tune sung by Lourdes emanated from the living room.
Hohl, 55, is a Green Bay Packers fan but still loved visiting Doc’s, especially sitting on the second floor and soaking in the sight of the Gulf. On Thursday night, the restaurant posted a photo to Instagram. In the foreground there was rubble from the hurricane’s destruction. But the image focused on the sun setting over the ocean, a vibrant layer of orange.
