I will not donate to Red Cross either. They provided some travel hygiene items to survivors of Rodeo Chediski fire but not much more. I have read too many stories about the waste of money through Red Cross. I would rather see funds go directly to families in the area.

Other people are missing as well. http://www.knoxnews.com/story/news/local/tennessee/2016/11/29/michael-reed-gatlinburg-desperate-find-wife-daughters/94598762/
“Michael Reed clings to hope that he and his wife and two daughters will be reunited after the Gatlinburg fires drove them apart.

A friend drove to his home on Tuesday to check on the house and confirmed it had been destroyed. Reed said the sheriff’s office also did a sweep of his house twice yesterday and there were no signs of his family.

“They are up there now with an arson team doing a full sweep, and that’s what I’m waiting on right now,” he said.

His wife, Constance, and children Lily, 9, and Chloe, 12, have been missing from the fire-riddled mountains of Gatlinburg after allegedly evacuating their Wiley Oakley Drive home.”

As usual the media is almost silent while a BIG Story is unfolding. I pray that there are no more deaths or injuries but it doesn’t look good. Shouldn’t this be Breaking News?
