Thanks for help on, after night of fire

This is a belated but heartfelt thank you to all Port Alfred residents who provided help and support when my house burnt down on July 27.

It’s a delayed response as I have been offline for the three weeks while I was in hospital. Once discharged, I have been engaged in meeting with insurers and other professionals regarding the fire, in addition to a delay of more than two weeks due to being offline after being discharged.

My most sincere and grateful thanks for the assistance on the her continued assistance in salvaging and storing some of my household contents.

To Multi Security and the fire department for their actions that night, and to Graham Petty, acting chair of Somerset Place, for his ongoing assistance in the insurance claim and in initiating the rebuilding of my home.

To Helen Purdon for her kindness and generosity, as well as the ladies of the Royal Port Alfred Golf Club for their clothing donations, to HG Accountants for their contribution, to Lillian Neave and to the many others who time. Apologies if I haven’t named you all, but I greatly appreciate each and every one of your contributions.

Last but not least, grateful thanks to my parents, Hazel and Windsor Bagley, for their tireless efforts to help salvage and safeguard my remaining possessions. Your help, support and physical efforts are much appreciated, mom and dad.

Sincere thanks also go to my brother, Wayne Bagley, and brother-in-law Brian Dawe, for their initial communication with my insurance brokers while I was
