Our nation is comprised of good and decent people the state of texas and also for the people who are First Responders and volunteers and people across this country who have offered not only their prayers of support, but a bunch of people who brought their boats with them to help at a time our nation was in trouble. I would also like to say that the heroism that we witnessed shows i think the very best of this country and everybody pitched in together.
