Billy Barnett writes from East Bernstadt to Adair Co., KY

Encourages donations directly to "Tornado Relief," and checks made out to the First Baptist Church of East Bernstadt so that every penny in donations goes directly to the help the tornado victims
Comments re article 50530 Laurel County KY Tornado Relief needs workers rakes

By Billy "B.T" Barnett

Thank you all!

We can use any and all help over here.

Everyone probably knows there were places that had more destruction than us but not more deaths; we lost five wonderful people.

The area hit was East Bernstadt which is a lot like parts of Adair County, off the beaten path, small community, some homes, a lot of trailers. Anywhere the storm hit is destroyed



The last time I saw anything like it was caused by a bomb in the military.

Some families don't have the money to bury their dead, funeral homes are working with them but they could use help.

Donations can be made to First Baptist Church of East Bernstadt...anywhere on the check put "tornado relief" and every cent will go to the families who need it.

Cash can be given to Joe Hare and he'll get it to me and I'll hand carry it to the church. If a donation is made to some relief agencies these people take some to pay themselves and will use the money where they see fit...hate to say that, but it's the truth!

Doing the money donations directly to the First Baptist Church of East Bernstadt, as I said above, means 100% - every penny - goes to the victims in Laurel County!

God Bless Columbia and Adair County!

- Billy BT Barnett
