ORMOND BEACH, Florida — The problems at Peggy Childress’ mobile home started in May when a tree from the vacant lot next door crashed through their carport, the first damage she or her husband, Mike, could recall in 15 years of living there.
Having the tree removed cost $600, all the money they had in savings. “It wiped us out,” said Childress, 61.
Then Hurricane Ian tore off their roof.
