American Red Cross news item - 8/31/2007:
Helen Rose's trailer home sits on a bluff overlooking the Blanchard River on the west side of Ottawa, Ohio. She has lived here all of her life, but today she and her husband, Harley, face an uncertain future. Red Cross Assistant Shelter Manager Sandy Kaple (r) talks to Helen Rose, an Ottawa, Ohio resident who lost her home to the recent flooding. Rose is staying at the Red Cross shelter where Kaple and other Red Cross volunteers are helping her with disaster relief. Helen and Harley had seen the river rise to flood stage before, but the wide stretch of bottom lands that separates their trailer from the river had always been enough to absorb the water before it reached the trailer. Last week, it wasn't.

"The river flooded before, years ago, but the water only came up to the bottom edge of our porch," Helen said. "This time, Harley looked out and said, 'We've got to get out!' The water was already over the porch. We had to wade through chest-deep water to get out to high ground."

Helen and Harley took refuge with a neighbor, then went to an American Red Cross shelter.
