Your insurance coverage can vanish in a moment. A current anecdote..

I live in a neighborhood of ~80 small lots/homes a few miles west of Palo Alto. Since Oct.1, nine of our neighbors have had their fire insurance policies terminated immediately on receipt of the mailed notices. Most of the nine had their policies in place for >15 years. Not like they were dodging the need for insurance.

Gofundme has its uses. I hope it brings at lease a small measure of ease to the Godbout family.

insurance companies are the vehicle through which the financial lunacy of suburban sprawl will be squeezed to death.
