A Friend in Need

Wreckage outside the Moots home, which is itself also wreckage

My friend Glenn Moots is one of those great people who spend their careers doing the work that ought to be done instead of the work that promotes their own professional advancement. He’s one of the “sound craftsmen” C.S. Lewis talks about in his masterpiece “The Inner Ring.”

He’s been wiped out by the flooding in Michigan. When I say wiped out, I mean “wiped out.” Everything is gone. The water came up to the roof. Everything in his office at Northwood University was also destroyed.

And it isn’t a flood plain, so they don’t have flood insurance. He and his family have to start again with nothing.

The Wall Street Journal ran a feature story on Glenn’s catastrophe here. I talk about how my family gave our government pandemic relief check to help Glenn rebulid here.

Most importantly, you can support Glenn here. Please consider giving generously.
