"Werner and I are a small part of the whole of Victoria
affected by the Black Saturday Fires. We all felt that
we were under siege and that we had to deal with
what life had dealt us.
The stresses and hardships varied from person to
person, but what was shared was the bonding of that
terrible summer and that soul searching day. Out of the
darkness of the fires came the great spirit of the
community to help and heal each other.
Werner and I feel incredibly lucky and will never
forget all the support and kindness, and we will carry
all of these experiences into our future.
Thank you."
