We met with the insurance company, fire inspector and others at the Francis house today. The fire inspector determined that on Wednesday night some people came to steal our A/C unit. They cut wires and rattled it around, but for some reason couldn't get it. However, their tampering caused an electrical fire which, as you know, was discovered and extinguished Thursday early am. On Monday evening, after the holiday weekend, we stopped by and all was well with the house. On Tuesday afternoon I went back and found the A/C unit like this:
The top was popped and the insides were stripped. Today when we returned we found this:
Gone! So, at some point last night they finished the job. Yeah. Really. I can hardly believe it myself, but this was the fire inspectors assessment.
So, Citizens Insurance did right by us today and we have every confidence that they will continue to do so in the future. I hope to sing their praises (and God's!) during this process! Jon & I have many decisions ahead: do we rebuild, tear down, sell? But, today was a good day.
