It's with a very heavey heart that I post these pictures. I wanted to get the pictures on as soon as possible and the photos have not been touched up to. I will redo them later so you can view a better quality . But I thought you would like view our home town now, rather than wait a few more days. The weather was cold and wet, we did the best we could through the rain and tears. This breaks my heart to see my beloved Coalwood in this horrific situation. Coalwood people are special and it may not look like it now, but in my heart I know they will work harder and make Coalwood more beautiful than ever before. I will post more but for now, you will see the main damage. Pictures tell a big story, but nothing can describe the hurt and disbelief on our families faces.
