Sad news, and some help needed

To everyone who knows bigjohnsinging, he recently posted the following:

hi folks,

well... another chapter in my life is ending. i wasn't able to sell my house. the bank took over and locked me out. they're giving me one day to move out my stuff. my sister is renting a u-haul truck for me and my nephew and his friend are gonna help me move.

anyone who can help, i can use all i can get, please show up at my former house at 16011 westdale ave. cleveland. we start at 8:00am this saturday july 30th.

I think I am going to try to make it over there for a little while on Saturday to try to help. I feel just terrible that this happened to him. He's really tried to sell his house, but just had no luck.

Anyone else who can help, I am sure he'd be incredibly grateful. He's an incredibly sweet, kind man who's heart is bigger than most. I cannot imagine how this is breaking that heart...

if he is not able to get everything moved out in the time provided, if he calls the bank and lets them know that he still has some personal items left inside that he would like to get, they will most likely set up another time to get them (i know this because this type of shit was my job). even if the bank doesn't set them up, he may be able to make arrangements with the bank and the contractor hired to oversee the move and pay the contractor himself. $25/hr is the average rate for this.

or he could just break out a window later and get it. people do that shit ALLLLLLL the time.

thanks for the advise. as it turns out we had a crew of 6 including me and dawn and we got everything out in four hours. there were a few things in the garage i went back for the next day. knowng me, i still would like to go through there one more time, but that is only my packrat instinct. i'm sure what was left there as trash, i won't miss, i guess.
