ARLINGTON They say bad luck comes in threes. An employee at downtown Arlingtons New Beginnings Thrift Shop now knows its true.
Donna Taubeneck spent every last penny burying her father who died last month. Her home was flooded at the end of November, and now, her daughter Jessie died in a tragic auto accident.
Her employer, Georgia Swift, is seeking help from the community.
We have set up an account at the Bank of America called Jessies Fund, Swift said adding that Donna will most likely be responsible to take care of Jessies two-year-old child survivor.
Donna really needs our help, Swift added.
