81-year-old gentleman storm affected who lost fence lines and lifelong established gardens in a 15-minute storm frenzy.

The 81-year-old Mirboo North resident lives alone weekdays, as his wife is caring for their daughter in Melbourne who has special disability needs and attends a special school there. When the storms hit on the Tuesday in a 15 minute phase of madness, they wiped out his fences, trees, and lifelong built garden with rare plants. This was a frighting experience for the resident, being alone at the time. A rare native bird native species to Australia knows as the Bower, was also impacted, and forced to evacuate. The exact bird has since returned after 2 months to prepare for nesting and mating, but the area requires attention and gardening care. The Mirboo resident has been fixing his fences and gardens alone and requires further financial support to acquire materials and tools to attend to his repairs. His repairs and losses are in excess of $100,000.
