We were working on a friend's house and total strangers with equipment would offer to help. The biggest thing I took note of was the range of emotions the victims went through. I saw one homeowner look absolutely overwhelmed by the magnitude of the damage and by the time were done, he and his wife actually had smiles on their faces. They still had quite a bit of an ordeal to go through, but when you put it all into perspective, it was the jump start they needed to put them on the road to recovery.
