DONATIONS SOUGHT FOR FIRE VICTIMS

A Fire Relief Fund has been set up and is eager to accept donations to help Elizabeth Connell and her fiancé Mark Moholland of South Thomaston.

Their home at 693 Spruce Head Road was totally destroyed in a fire early Easter Sunday morning when the factory-installed fireplace appeared to have malfunctioned. There was no insurance on the home due to the tough economic times, and the fact that Elizabeth had been back to work only three or four months since losing her job almost two years ago to downsizing.

This has been absolutely devastating financially. Donations will be gratefully accepted and truly appreciated, either in person at the Rockland Camden National Branch, or by mail to:

  • Connell/ Moholland Fire Relief Fund
  • c/o Camden National Bank
  • Attn: Christy Dines
  • P.O. Box 880
  • Rockland, ME 04841
