@CWatkinsNash: The devastation to entire neighbourhoods from these sorts of disasters can take a long time to recover from, and it does bring out the best and, sadly, the worst in people. I'm sorry you got subjected to the worst, but glad you are seeing the best in your neighbours and the community supporting everyone.

The outpouring of love and support from people was incredible. I know a lot more of my neighbors now, and they're really good people.

And that should be the long term takeaway from this -- a new, and better understanding of your neighbours and a shared commitment to coming back strong and resilient.
