A Huge Thank You!

The Alvarado Family would like to thank everyone who helped with recovery and rebuilding after Hurricane Ike. Due to the generosity and dedication from friends and family the rebuilding was able to be done quickly and allowed Rita and Pete to return to their home. We would like to acknowledge Robert Alvarado, Andrew & Lorilei Alvarado, Elizabeth McVey, and Jennifer Alvarado for dedicating extensive periods of their time to complete this project. The photos below show the progress over a three month period. The stairway and minor detail items remain to be done. We are a blessed family to have each other and to have such wonderful friends who offered their support. With sincere heartfelt thanks, Pete & Rita Alvarado and the Alvarado Family

Pete: Happy to be home.

Rita: The hardest workin' woman I ever met.

Many Thanks

As I sat in church this morning, I was overcome by a feeling of thankfulness. We are so blessed. It helps me to remember these blessings in times of feeling overwhelmed.

Please do not feel pressured or obligated to do anything other than keep the Alvarado's in your thoughts and prayers.
