Coping After Irene
Today we’re checking in with Beth Frock and Jon Graham of Rochester. We visited them a little over a week ago to get a tour of what was left of their home, a 3 story farmhouse destroyed by Tropical Storm Irene when a brook near the property overflowed and changed course, eroded the banks nearby and toppled the house to the ground.
Jon, Beth, and their two daughters, 12-year old Chloe and 16-year old Rhianna, are coping with a tremendous upheaval to their lives. Today we’re getting an update about a week after we last spoke, as they join VPR’s Mitch Wertlieb on the line from Rochester.
