Please Help Mr. Hamrick
October 17th, 2017
Charles Hamrick and family
UPDATED: Voting is going well but not nearly good enough. YOUR HELP is needed until the vote ends in early November.
Charles Hamrick is a Korean War Veteran who was a member of the Marines’ Elite Special Ops force. His wife Joann has been suffering for the past five years from a severe progressive neurological condition that leaves her requiring constant care. Mr. & Mrs Hamrick have been married 56 years and survive on a small pension and Social Security.
Charles and his son provide Joann’s care — at home — with extremely little outside assistance.
Sadly, their roof fell apart and they can’t afford to fix it. A neighbor paid to remove raccoons from the home recently, and to clean up water damage and provide a very temporary fix.
The good news is the Hamricks are a finalist for a donated roof courtesy of Roofing By Curry in Sarasota, as part of a program to help the needy. But to get the free roof, they need the most votes.

BY IRA KAUFMAN
Flat, flat, flat. Simple as that.
If only the 2017 Bucs could be summed up in a nursery rhyme. Let’s try another:
If you’re flat and you know it, miss a tackle
If you’re flat and you know it, miss a tackle
If you’re flat and you know it and you really want to show it
If you’re flat and you know it, blow a coverage. [read more]
