Marcie (Larson) McDevitt, Kenosha, WI I appreciate having this update. Best wishes to all of you as you fight another flood--here's hoping it won't be too bad!
Joe and Cathy Hancock - Troy, OH We have great memories of living in Pembina, and all the nice people there. Our thoughts are with you all as we watch your spring fight with the high water.
Thank you Laura for keeping us updated on the flood. I appreciate all the pictures too. Will be thinking of everyone in the next few weeks & hope the dikes all hold. Take care & you are in my prayers.
Ernie and DelAnn (Laude) Ohlin - Chico, CA Thank you for this this information. My sister and brother-in-law, Kris & Cameron Wilwand, have been keeping us informed also. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you as you deal with mother nature.
We are following your blog, Laura. Thanks for the updates. The flood of '97 is still vivid in our minds and we are praying for all of you. Stephen and Pearl Gibbons (Sioux Center, IA)
We are following your blog from Baraboo, WI. I've shared the blog address with my brother in Rochester, MN and my sister in San Diego. (They were born during the floods of 1948 and 1950!) We farmed in the St. Vincent area and are interested and concerned.
Following your blog from Kokomo, Indiana. Your daily updates have special interest as my parents, Marlene and John Johnson, are here for the "duration" of Pembina's high water. Don's mother, Annie Windt, was evacuated from Bethany Homes in Fargo to a church in Casselton. We continue to marvel at the strength and resilience of all the folks up and down the Red River Valley. Stay safe! Jolene (Johnson) and Don Windt

You are in prayers from coast to coast and border to borader and from China! Kudos to all of you for outstanding efforts! Jan
I lived through the 1948 and 1950 flood. Shoveling the mud and slush out of our living room after the water went down was a terrible experience. I pray that Pembina once again bonds together and beats mother nature.
First 12 years of my life were in Pembina, remember floods from the past and how to sandbag at a young age, nice to see names of people I can recognize after being away for 40 years. Might stop by this summer, its also fun to check out the Pembina web site. GO WILDCATS
Thank you from Stayton, Oregon for keeping all of us "ust to live there" people up to date on the flooding. Scottie and I lived in Pembina from 1949 to 1960, so always followed the news about the Red River in the spring. C. L. Bingham
Hoping and praying for the best for my family "back home." Thanks for posting the pictures so those of us on the MN side of the river can get updates. Paulette (Roy) Weleski, Clear Lake, MN.
I follow the flood story closely. Lived in St. Vincent until 1964. Living now in Florida but still have feelings for the homeland, MINESOTA. Hope that all survive the flooding.
Hi, I'm Alison Raheem. I live in Illinois, originally from Olga. You are doing a great job on your blog, the pictures are very good also. Hope everything goes well for all of you

This is Wendy (Lapp) Erickson, out west in Visalia, CA. Keeping everyone in our prayers and cheering you on with admiration and awe. Everyone, keep up the great work!
Thank you Laura for the work you have done in keeping us all informed and connected - through the flood blog. So many people worked behind the scenes in protecting our town, I am truly thankful for our community which banded together. The High Water Cafe will be missed and praise to the ladies of the American Legion Auxiliary in Pembina for organizing this and keeping the those who served well fed. Noreen H
