A resident from the east end of St. John’s says the blizzard taught her to do something she should have done two decades ago.
Jenn Deon says getting to know those who live in your area and having their numbers is something everyone should been on top of in case of emergencies.
Would it be great for people to be able to call me and say ‘Hey Jen, you guys got some eggs? Or we need some milk for the baby.’ I just can’t believe it’s taken me 20 years to go around and give everyone my number.
Deon also says, just like everything else, there’s an app for that. It’s called Next Door and it connects neighbours and people in the surrounding area.
So we saw Mr. Barfoot shoveling on Eric Street. @LindaSwainVOCM @BenMurphy590 @RadioGregSmith and I decided to give him a hand. That snow is heavy! #nlwx #YYTSOE pic.twitter.com/WRbF56gS7k
