As you know, Hurricane Ike wreaked havoc on the Gulf Coast of Texas over the weekend. As you may also know, the Houston area, specifically Galveston County, is where our own Jeremy Newman lives.

Here's what you need to know first: Newman and his family are safe. No one in his family, thank God, has been injured.

Here's the story from a radio trade magazine called Inside Radio:

1,600 miles away, a Rochester personality loses everything to Hurricane Ike.
Jeremy Newman co-hosts mornings on Entercom country WBEE-FM, Rochester, NY (92.5) from his home in Bacliff, TX near Galveston Bay. But the storm surge washed through his house. Newman says “It’s a complete nightmare.” He tells WHEC-TV that he found some of his belongings a few streets away. Newman and his family evacuated Friday with as much as they could take. While he doesn’t have insurance to cover the loss, Newman remains upbeat. “I can get new stuff. I’m healthy. My family is healthy.”

Use the navigation at the top of this page to see some videos and photos Newman has posted.

Please keep him and his family in your prayers, as they are in ours.

I recently started listening to the bee coffee club, you are hilarious. You make my mornings. Sorry about your house and belongings. I am glad you and your family have survived this hurricane that God sent your way. Yes everyone keeps posting comments about how God will guide you and take care of you. I am sorry but God should never have sent that hurricane your way. Glad you are alright though. Keep your head up, you will get through this. Thanks again for what you do. Steve M

And I do know I certainly am feeling for you. You have and will remain in my prayers; what a fabulous attitude you have; you are an inspiration! So great to hear your voice; keep on keepin on and good luck!!!

Hey Newman, so glad to hear that you and your family are ok, and will get through this stronger!!

You and your family will rebuild and come out better than ever!! I listen to you religiously every morning and can't tell you how you brighten everyday with your humor and witt.

Jeremy and Fam
Jeremy, I also moved away from Rochester, a city that I went to to get away from it all and I was there for seven years, and left in 2007. I know what you are feeling when you say you miss that city and I understand why you moved away (I moved away to be with my family and friend and for a family business also.) I am so sorry that you have had to go through all of this, but I know you will bounce back. We all miss you and wish we could be there to support you. So happy all of your family and friends are ok. You take care Newman. You and your family are in all of our thoughts and prayers.
09/15/2008 2:53PM
Thinking of you
Hey Newman,it was very good to hear you on the radio this morning and to know that you and your family are ok. Been praying for you and your family all weekend. Just remember the most important thing you have is your family & friends and all of us here in Rochester who are here for you and to help in anyway we can. Take care and be safe. Love, Kate

Thoughts & Prayers
Newman, From my family to yours; you are in our throughts and prayers. As always you are upbeat about every situation; which is why I like listening to you in the morning. You make the day start off in just the right way! You turn every negative situation into a positive laughable matter! God Bless and remember how many family members you have (listeners) Were all here for you!
09/15/2008 2:57PM
Your are an Inspiration!!!!
Jeremy: After hearing you speak this morning, I realize that I must realize that somethings just are not important in life. I could never imagine myselg going through what you and many others are facing, but your outlook on this is something I will always hear you saying in my head during and future difficult times in my life. Olease know that you are in our prayers and I know that prayers are heard.

Seriously, the Lord doesn't hand us anything that He isn't sure we can handle so you hang in there and remember all you have todo is ask and everyone here in BEE country will be there to help you nad your family. Take care.
09/15/2008 3:02PM
Jeremy,family, & neighbors
While the storm took your posessions it seems to have made you a stronger person. I just listened to the Audio and I feel so joyful that this WBEE listeners community has helped to comfort you during one of "your darkest times". You bring laughter tomy mornings with your witt and your cellphlogg and I cannot wait until I can laugh with you again. When you have family and friends you have the best things ever. I am sure the sun will shine and bring about another day.
09/15/2008 3:09PM

I listen to you every morning and just wanted to say be strong and you will work through this. You make my day. I hope things work out for you and your family. Thank heaven they are all safe. I think the BEE should have a benefit for you and your family.Let's hear it people!!!!!!!!!!!!! Nance

Tough part is, is that you're so "dang" far away. Steve and I would be there, along with your extended Bee Family, with Lysol, and Clorox, helping you clean up!!! We pray for you every day, but especially this past weekend. We were greatful for all the TV coverage. Just know, as all the others,we love you and only hope the best for you.

glad to hear your voice
Newman I have never really looked forward to Monday mornings, but today I did because I was looking forward to hearing your voice on the radio after thinking of you and your family all weekend. It was so good to hear your voice and to know that you are okay, things can be replaced but you never can be! Your fans love you and support you! We will keep listening. The love of your family is why you moved back to Texas, and that is what will help you get through this difficult time!
09/15/2008 4:35PM
Jeremy,
We spoke briefly this am about "nemerica" The bottom line is you need to know if you call it Rochester or Newmerica it's your home. We listen everyday and it must seem odd to you because you don't know us, but we feel we know you and we cried with you this morning because you are family. Rebecca
09/15/2008 5:43PM
Newman
A wise man once told me that "God would never put anything in front of you that you can't handle" that man was my dad and to this day I thank him for all his wisdom which made me a stronger person. If I could say one thing to you it would be the same phrase. I know that you and your family are strong enough, singlely and jointly, to come out on top of this obstacle. All my best wishes to you and yours. MM
09/15/2008 5:53PM
I heart you!
Newman, you are so loved by those of us living in Rochester. You make us laugh each morning, even in hard times. You know that you and your family will have tons of open doors should you all want to relocate :) If you need anything, your Rochester familyis here for you. -Kelly
09/15/2008 5:54PM
Amazing people :-)
It's amazing how someone I've listened to on the radio and never met in person can have such an affect on so many lives. I could hear in your voice your feelings and I was right there with you. Jeremy, you're a good person and I know you'll be okay :-)
09/15/2008 5:54PM
Jeremy
You and your family are in my thoughts and mostly my prayers. You make me laugh & smile every weekday morning. I have no doubt you will get thru this and wish you didn't have to. As others have said, you don't know me but to me you are like family.Take care and stay safe. Julie
09/15/2008 6:03PM
Relieved
Jeremy, I was very releived and happy to hear your voice on the Bee this morning. I had been thinking about you and praying for you and your family all weekend. So glad to hear that you and your family are all fine. So sad that you lost everything, but I feel that you will get through this difficult time with love and support from your family and friends -- all of us Bee listeners are included in that. I listen to the Coffee Club every morning as I drive to work and then at my desk. Just know that there have been many days, when I really was down, but listening to you, I couldn't help but laugh about something and it made my day so much better. You have a wonderful gift that we in Rochester are so lucky you share with us! Keep your chin up... you will get through this... it may take a while, but we arehere for you if ever you need anything. God Bless you, your family and everyone that had to go through this utter devesatation they call "Ike". tc

Who's Jerry Newman? Glad to hear Jeremy is alright.
09/15/2008 7:50PM
Just like Family
Newman, Although we've never met my mom and I agree that you are like family. We talk about all the funny things that go on during the BEE morning coffee club chats and especially these past few days we've talked about how worried we were for you and your family. I checked the website several times each day looking for news stories, blogs and You Tube videos just to see how you were doing. My heart went out to you to hear that you lost so much but I was so happy to hear that you and your family had made it through the storm safely. Anything you need for yourself, your family or community, just ask. You're in my thoughts and prayers! Melissa
09/15/2008 7:51PM
Keep your spirits up!!
Jeremy, You have always brightened my day and I hope each day you wake up and find something, as simple as it may be, to brighten your day.I'm sorry for the loss of your personal stuff but I can't tell you how glad many, many people are that you and your family are ok.Bless you all and don't be afraid to ask for help, your listeners are here for you!! we love you.

Hey dude, I'm so sorry. I'm gonna get my church on a mission to help you. They are such a loving group, and you are the bet - a wonderful family man. That's what we're all about - families helping families. Betty Hatch
09/15/2008 8:07PM
Jeremy
Was relieved to hear your voice this morning. God has a plan, and his plan was for you and your family to come through this awful carnage safe. Things can be replaced, but people can't. Hang in there. I know you are a tough one! NRH in Irondequoit
09/15/2008 8:11PM
Newman
My family and I send you and your family all the prayers we can. We all watched the news coverage on Ike; all of us thinking of you and your family. Your Rochester family knows you have heart and strength; that will carry you through anything. My 3 year old son told us during this am's broadcast that he was sad. When we asked why he said because Newman was sad. We were touched that we'd taught our son such sensitivity; we now hope that he grows up to be half the man that you are!!! We pride you in your strength to not only help yourself, but most importantly your community. The World needs more men as strong as you are. Your words and actions throughout that whole storm just re-affirmed for me what I already knew, and that was Rochester and Texas should be proud to have you in our community!! You will continue in our prayers for days forward. God Bless. The LaClair Family
09/15/2008 8:15PM
Hi Jeremy
I was listening this morning to the Bee as I do everyday on my way to work. Thanking GOD that you and your family are safe. I cried right along with you when you were telling of the devastation and loss. Jeremy we are here as friends and family in the Rochester area. I am also the one that called the station and told you I just moved and had a houseful of furniture in my garage. I wasn't kidding its yours if you need it. And I'll have those chammies for you too..... Take care be safe and remember you are loved by many people who want you safe and sound. Hope to see you soon at a Bee event when things get back to normal. They will too. Love to you and your family, Maureen Price Retsof, NY
09/15/2008 8:20PM
Newman
As our family watched the Ike coverage all weekend, we all knew that we were watching it and thinking of you and your family; after all, you are one of our family!! My 3 year old son this am make a comment during the broadcast that he was sad, when we asked him why he said: "Because Newman is sad!!". We are proud that we've raised such a good boy, and after watching your courage, strength and conviction, we now hope that our son grows up to be half the man that you are!! We are proud that we have such a noble man tied with our community. We continue to hold you and your family in our prayers for days to come. All our support, The LaClair Family
09/15/2008 8:22PM

09/15/2008 9:21PM

Hi Jeremy; You and your family were in my prayers all weekend long. Stuff is really just anchors-and who needs anchors when the ocean is crashing into your house. I'm just glad you and your family are doing ok- you hang in there bud and you cansay "anyways" as much as you want this week. your friend in Batavia; Chuck

Stories to tell!
Jeremy, God Bless you and your family. Wonderful news that you and your family are okay. I know how devastating it is, but just think of the stories you'll have to tell your kids and grandkids. Write a journal it will help you see how each daywill get better and it will have your memories fresh for you when you go to tell your storie. We love you and miss you and hope we will see you in November, Love Marcie Victor,ny
09/15/2008 9:31PM
You inspire me
Jeremy, I listen to the Coffee Club every day and have for years. I was so touched by your honesty and vulnerability during today's broadcast. Let me share this: I don't believe in accidents. Everything happens for a reason. Now don't misunderstand me, I am NOT saying a devastating storm is a good thing.What I am saying is that whatever has happened to you this weekend can ultimately be for your benefit. You sound like you made some major breakthroughs in you emotional life because of this terrible storm. You're already a pretty amazing guy, and the inner strength you are gleaning from this will make you more resilient and better able to maybe help someone else who may need to rely on you somewhere down the road. Your ability to see humor in spite of great obstacles is wonderful. God Bless you, sweetie, give you peace and the strength and wisdom you will need in the days ahead. We are all behind you and ready to help in any way we can. Karen M.
09/15/2008 9:54PM
So glad that you are OK!
Hi Newman, I was so excited to hear your voice on the radio when my alarm rang this morning-- That is usually not my first reaction on a Monday morning, but I was so glad to know that you were ok!! I truly felt like I got word that a family member was safe and well....You give me such a giggle every morning on my way to work-- your shenanigans truly brighten my entire day!! I hope that all the love that is being sent your way from Rochester is making your day just as bright. All our love and support to you and your Texas family! Take care! Tricia

American Red Cross Donation
Jeremy, it's so "you" to suggest listeners donate to the Red Cross instead of to you personally. I am basing my donation on the number of times you have made me laugh or smile over the last 4 years--oh, wait--that means I'll have to cash in the 401(k)! Seriously, because it's your wish, I'll get a check right out to the good people at Red Cross. Thanks for keeping the weekend DJs updated on your well-being. Brian, Big Daddy and Billy kept us updated. Wishing you, your family and friends the best of luck as you get through the next couple of months. --P from Brockport
09/15/2008 10:23PM
God loves you
Newman, I've been listening to the show for years, but I never call or write. So I'm making the time to say, you have brought so much cheer to my mornings and to my life. You've touched a lot of lives and brought a lot of fun to my mornings. You may find it hard to understand, but I forget to have fun... and you are a reminder to do just that! Take it from someone with ADD... Don't take life too serious! It'll get ya down! Don't do it! Just put one foot in front of the other! I ... and lots of others in Rochester are here for you! God bless! Sue
09/15/2008 10:33PM
Jeremy
I was sorry to hear about your loss but I was also glad to hear that you and your family were alright. Rebecca is right, we feel like we are part of the Bee family and it feels like something happened to someone in our own family when something like this happens. I know it must be terrible to lose everything but I want you to know that all of your listeners are glad that you are okay and that we are all here to help in any way we can. I will be praying for you and your family and I hope you know how much love and support you have here in Rochester JM
09/15/2008 11:20PM
Blessings
Jeremy, I realize the losses you and your family have suffered are huge. But, I also have come to realize that you have the deep faith to know that all will turn out all right. You are thinking correctly in that you have your health and the health of your family. The love and support of your family and friends makes you a very wealthy man. Just keep the Faith and God will remain true to you. Blessings to you and your family. Eileen

my thoughts and prayers are with you!!!
09/16/2008 6:20AM
Thankful
As many many other fans did, I worried about you and your family all weekend. I am very very glad that you are all alive and well. And to repeat what countless others have said, God only gives us what we can handle. You and yours will be fine, you can handle this, things are replaceable, and family is not. You still have what is important, and that is all that counts. The rest will fall into place as needed. Until all is normal, or as close to normal as it will ever get, our thoughts and prayers are with you, your family, your neighbors, and all affected. Much love is being sent your way from Rushville NY!!
09/16/2008 6:27AM

09/16/2008 6:47AM
We'll still be here... Go do what you need to do
Hi Jeremy. You are an amazing man, your family should be proud, all of us in the Rochester area are. I have to thank you for giving me a new perspective on my Mom. I always thought she was over reacting and now I hear you saying the same exact things she said. I grew up in Homestead, FL. I was not home for Andrew but my parents were. As soon as Miami Intl opened I was on the first flight to help my parents. I could not get over the devastation, but I also got lost going home. When I woke up the first morning after sleeping on wet sofas, with a couple neighbors on my parents back porch and thought I was in Vietnam. I was fortunate to go back to Boston 5 days later, my family wasn't as fortunate they went another 3 weeks without electricity. You are helping to get the word out, letting people see how things really are so we don't forget while the rest of us get on with life. Don't be strong for everyone, be strong for yourself and you'll be amazed at what you can accomplish. I will continue to pray for you, your family, and your neighbors. About the blogs, it's our way of knowing that you are ok - THANK YOU!
09/16/2008 6:49AM
Honesty appreciated
Jeremy, i listened to you this morning (Tues) and your raw emotions and honesty did more to show the reality and devestation than any pictures or videos. I was stuck standing still in my kitchen, motionless, listening to you. I was just stuck, sobbing. I wanted to wrap my arms around you and give you a big hug. So, from all these miles away, close your eyes and wrap your arms around yourself and know how many people are holding you in their hearts, lending you strength to face this challenge set before you. You are serving a purpose, not only for yourself but for those down there who don't have a voice. You are their voice. It's not easy, but you are making an impact and a huge difference. ~JK

Glade to here about Feema.Just like the rest of fed gov.a worthless piece of s--t.We would sure wellcome you back to Rochester as you are quite a guy
09/16/2008 6:57AM
Jeremy
Material objects can be replaced but you can not. Other then helping you through the red cross if there is anything else we can do let us know. Like sending care packages or money to help you and you family re build and get through this hard time.
09/16/2008 7:04AM
Jeremy,
I listened to you this morning and wanted to jump through the radio to give you a hug. You said you felt guilty having a bed to sleep in and a/c to keep you cool. Don't feel guilty...you were given these things to help keep you strong and be there to help others as you have been doing. It would have been so easy to just turn off the radio and not "have" to listen to your pain and frustration but you just don't do that to people you care about. We're all thinking about you and sending you and your family our support, prayers, and hugs.
09/16/2008 7:14AM
Jeremy,
Like all Bee listeners and most of upstate NY my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family and glad to hear you are all safe. Just know that we all wish we could change this for you and are here for you. I had a rough holiday season seval years back (nothing compared to what your dealing with now) and with out even looking at it my mom had given me a Boyd Bear figurine. They always have a saying on the bottom. Shortly after the season as I went to pack it away .I read what it had said and cried. My mom had given me this at a low point in my life with out even realizing what it said or ment. It was a quote from Mother Teresa "I know God will not give me anthing I can't handle. I just wish that he didn't trust me so much " This has remained out on my TV stand ever since and any time I have a bad moment I see it and remember what is written on the bottom. My whole family are first responders trained to help in theses situations. My sister lives in Tampa and was sent as a medic and was some of the first ones in after Katrina into New Orleans and even with training I can not begin to imagine doing what she did and saw and what you're going through now. No ammount of trainging can prepare you for somthing like this. I know that there are moments this will help and moments it won't but just know that you have your friends, family and upstate NY as a support system durring this difficult time and know we are here for you. All my best to your and your famliy.
09/16/2008 7:20AM
Jeremy
I am sorry that you are going through this but I hope you know you are not alone. It feels like someone in our family is going through this.Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family and I am glad that you and your family are okay. If there isanything we can do from Rochester, please let us know because I am sure, myself, like all of your other listeners would do anything we can to help. The McCutchan Family, Greece, NY
09/16/2008 7:27AM
Happy that you and your family are safe
Newman, I am so happy to learn that you and your family are safe. You already know that things can be replaced. I cannot imagine what you are going through with this horrific disaster. The best thing is that you are safe adn can go on. I know that it will take time to get your life back in order if that is possible. Just know that we all love you and our hearts and prayers and best wishes go out to you at this time and always. Debbie, Batavia NY
09/16/2008 7:42AM
Your suffering benefits others
Jeremy, I can only imagine the terrible things you are seeing and experiencing, but know this, many people who would not ever understand the depth of such disasters are now learning about it first hand through you. It's important to share your experience so that those suffering are helped, and those who are not can appreciate their blessings. We're behind you 200%.
09/16/2008 7:44AM
You are so loved!
Jeremy, just remember that God doesn't give you anything that you can't handle if you lean on Him. You are in our thoughts and prayers daily. Rochester is your second home and you will always have your listeners here to love and support you. You are family to us, and we are rejoicing that you and your family are okay and healthy and grieving for your material loss. May God continue to hold you and lift you up during this time. Hugs from NY!!
09/16/2008 7:57AM
Deb and Frank
Jeremy, Keep your chin up-You said it yourself-things can be replaced--we all know you can't and we are sure glad you and your family came through it safely. You have the full support of the Bee listeners and anything we can do we sure will. You light up our lives every morning along with Steve and Terry and we all want that to continue-so we will certainly return that threefold. Take care of yourself. We love you.
09/16/2008 8:13AM
Jermey
As I sat and listened as I do every morning on my way to work, my heart is hurting for all who have suffered from Ike. You are loved very much from all your family! Look for that beautiful sunrise and keep smiling! Best wishes always! Michele

My prayers are with you and your family
Jeremy, I just wanted to let you know how sorry I am and hope you are able to get back to your life as soon as possible. I am sending you lots of prayers to you and your family. I lit a candle in my church for you and your family.
09/16/2008 9:18AM
I'm devastated for you
Jeremy, as I listened to you this morning while I took my hot shower, in my intact and comfortable home, I just cried for your loss, and for everyone else down there in Texas. I know you know how much everyone in Rochester loves you, but I just had to tell you anyway, especially after I heard how emotional and honest you were. Believe me, no one thinks less of you for saying you didn't feel like being on the radio or blogging or any of that other stuff right now. It really should be the last thing on your mind. However, we do appreciate hearing from you. I will donate to the Red Cross and pray for you, your family, and friends. Please continue to draw strength from all of your loyal listeners. We love you!
09/16/2008 9:21AM
So Glad
Jeremy I am so glad that you and your family are safe....you may have lost material things but you still have each other and that is more important. You are in my prayers.....Stay positive and keep smiling.
09/16/2008 9:36AM

Hello Newman!:)
My thoughts are with you and al of the people hit by IKE:( I havew a sister who lives in Houston and she and her family are fine but I still wish they were here. Who ever thought up hurricane was not thinking of all the people who would be affected by it. best of luck & my thoughts and prays are with the state of Texas!! S Hoover In Macedon NY
09/16/2008 11:36AM
An Idea
Hey Newman, I have been following this whole thing with you, your family and neighbors dueling it out with Ike. My heart and prayers go out to all involved, I have been trying to come up with a way to send what I can to you through the Red Cross. When I thought of an idea that may help others. I have been doubling up on my minimum payment on my credit card to try to get it paid off sooner. This month I will only make the minimum and send the other half to the Red Cross. It may buy a few cases of water. You have touched so many I hope people do whatever they can to help. Everyday will get better for you. Hang in there.
09/16/2008 11:39AM
Keep Strong
Jeremy, My heartfelt wishes to you, your family, and everyone in Texas going through this tragedy. Try to keep the faith as you labor through the clean up and sorting. You have made me laugh on so many occasions when I needed it. I would like to do something for you in your time of need in return. Thank God that you and your family were not injured. Please know that we are all praying for you. Remember that if God brings you to it, he will see you through it. Betsy - Greece NY
09/16/2008 12:06PM
WE LOVE YOU JEREMY!
Hi Jeremy, I know that you didn't want to be on the radio today but I need to tell you something. All that you talked about was not in vein. For those of us who have never had to endure such a tragedy, you have put it all into prospective. I cried my eyes out with you this morning. You are an incredible man and I am so in awe by the way you are handling this situation. You are sooooo self-less - wanting to do for everyone else. That must melts my heart. You are one of a kind and I mean that sincerely. As with all of you on the morning show, I feel like I know you and that you are part of my family. I will do my part and grant your wish by making a donation to the Red Cross. As with the rest of the world, I too live paycheck to paycheck but my family and I will gladly go without to help someone in need. Now- on a brighter note, you have the most beautiful blue eyes that I have ever seen! Chin up - tomorrow is another day and we'll all still be praying for you. -Ontario, NY

Driving in to work this morning, I heard you discussing the highs that you have experienced. You brought tears to my eyes. God Bless You and all the people of TX and keep you and your family safe! May you continue to find comfort and support in all the small miracles that you witness and in helping others. Your home away from home is here to help in any way we can!
09/16/2008 12:44PM
Newman~
newman listening to you the past few days has brought tears to my eyes which is hard to do. you really are an amazing person. i know your tired and its ok to be. its ok to cry and have anger. but what your doing to help people is truly making a difference and an impact that is giving strength to others that you dont know about. Keep your head up. We love you.

09/16/2008 1:19PM
Best wishes to you, your family and neighbors!!
Tears are springing to my eyes as I write this to you. You are a special part of my day and so now are your family and your neighbors. The Red Cross is one way to help...be sure to let us know if there are other ways we can help as well. Wishing you whatever it is that you need most right now, and also wishing you Peace. BD
09/16/2008 1:55PM
All of Texas and Jeremy
Jereemy you have such a wonderful spirit about you that I never knew until these last few days. My heart goes out to you and your family,friends and to all of your neighbors in Texas. I have learned a lot thru you about FEMA not helping its own. Because of what you have said about the Red Cross being there and not FEMA I have decided to donate to the Red Cross. Our government needs to step up and do what ever is necessary to help out Texas!! God bless all of you in Texas. Mary
09/16/2008 2:14PM
It will be okay
Jeremy, I know what you are going through. My family lived in Tampa when Andrew came through and desroyed everything we had worked so hard for. I can say that I have been where you are now, and my heart goes out to you. It has been quite a few years now, and I am happy to say that it did work out because even though you loose all your positions, and your hard work that you put into the house, it will be rebuilt and the things will be replaced. Just know that you made it through the darkest of times, and you will have many more sun rises from here on out. Heidi
09/16/2008 2:18PM
Stay strong...
Newman, we are so thankful to know that you & your family is safe. Keep your chin up - I know how rough it is right now for you.... Our family went through a housefire a few years ago, and we have pulled through. It's a lot of heartache, tears, frustration, and work, but you will get through this. The communites are pullin' for ya, we love you & send our best to you!! Please keep us updated, and just remember to take a breather for yourself every now and then. Love, Tammy S., Canandaigua, NY

Hopefully we will be able to see you on November 5th so you can get all those hugs we want to give you. Love ya Jess
09/16/2008 4:04PM
Thoughts with you & your loved ones
Hey Newman...I hope you have figured out by now how important you are to our lives in Rochester NY...I know it' a bit strang 'cause technically we are strangers but being able to listen to you & the gang on the radio helps me so much ...espically morning traffic & being stuck on 390 South! I worried a lot about you & your loved ones this weekend & just prayed that you were all safe & I am so very happy that God has answered our prayers & allowed you to come back & keep us laughing. I hope you will be able to continue to laugh & if you need anything your rochester family is here for you 1,000%. Lova Ya & Take care of everyone there...Jamie Ann from Greece NY

09/16/2008 4:21PM
One Big Family
Every morning this week I have heard people of all kinds come together and reassure each other that everything will be okay. This emotional ride has had an impact on so many, and I really think it is great how everyone seems like ONE BIG Family <3
09/16/2008 4:29PM
Feel Free
Tears fell all over western NY this morning including mine. Jeremy you are so loved and I feel honored that you feel close enough to us to let us hold you up while you do your best to keep things together. Meany have said that God will only give you what you can handle. I believe that God gives you friends and family to get you through the things you can't get through on your own. We are here for you in every way we can be. You mentoned this morning that you felt guilty about having a bed, power and A/C last night. You my friend need to use these blessings as your sanctuary to recharge your batteries. God has blessed you with them, use them and then pass the strength they provied you on to others as you have been! Last but not least.... I'm glad to cry with you and feel the emotions with you. Thank you for making this all so real for us. I pray that God continue to bless you and give you the strength to continue being you!! If you will let us.. as part of your Western NY family please let us give to you as well as the Red Cross. Get us a list of things we can send and we will!! Always Nicole
09/16/2008 4:44PM
Jeremy
You and your family are all in our thoughts and prayers. You really made me think twice about the impact of the storm and how people's lives have forever been changed. As a community we need to do something to help. The storm may have passed, but much help is still needed.
09/16/2008 5:10PM
Newman
I have been incredibly moved by your selfless acts. You truly are an AMERICAN! I was moved to tears this morning when you spoke of the damage and the suffering. You are growing in soul. Thank you for letting us be a part of that. You spoke this morning of the difficulty there is for some to make financial obligations and how prayers are just as important. I thank you for that statement as I have no money to share (or even use :)) I have prayers that my indeed overflow the cup. And they are not just for you, but for everyone around you and affected. May God show you the rainbow at the end of evert storm. Lisa
09/16/2008 5:57PM
Favorite Morning Show
Newman, I moved out of the Rochester area over 6 months ago but still listen to the BEE morning show every morning on my computer at work because you rock! I am so sorry to hear of the hard times you are facing, but you will get through it and all of your fans are here for you!
09/16/2008 6:19PM

09/16/2008 6:47PM
You make it real, Jeremy
We feel like you are family, and our prayers are with you, your family, your frieds and neighbors. This isn't some abstract "thing" that happened to people somewhere else. Thank you for selflessly sharing your tears, not just your laughter, with thoseof us here in Rochester living in comfort. We hope these tough times don't last too much longer for you, and we appreciate you letting us see into your life this way. We do care, and wish you and those around you better days soon. ~Jim & Lin
09/16/2008 6:53PM
you are a special man
Listening to you this morning on the radio, broke my heart. I just can't imagine what you have been thru and what you have to do to get back to your normal life style. You will be in my prayers and all who have suffered. I am so glad you and your familyare all safe.Remember that your radio family loves you and will be there for you. Keep your chin up.
09/16/2008 7:44PM
One Day at a time
Jeremy, I remember listening to you when you fist came to Rochester and the original "war" with the Morning Coffee Club. We lost Bill, and you were there to help us all pick up the pieces. Your laughter and joy is something we all look forward to again soon. My mom's advice has always been to take it one day at a time, and if the day seems too long to break it down into increments you can handle (an hour, a 1/2 hour, 20 minutes, 5 minutes even 1 minute), you can do it because you are a strong individual. All of my prayers go to you and your family. May God's blessings shine down on you as you go about your business of regaining your life. You'll stay in my thoughts and prayers as will all of the people of your area. Keep going forward. Your friend and listener. Lori

09/16/2008 9:22PM
One day at a time
Jeremy, I remember listening to you when you were on nights when you first came to Rochester and the "war" with Bill and Terry. We lost Bill, and you were there to help pick up the pieces. I hope that our thoughts and prayers will help you pick up your pieces and carry on. My mom's advice was to take one day at a time. She always said if the day looked too long in front of you to break it into increments that you could handle (an hour, a 1/2 hour, 5 minutes or even 1 minute) if that would help you get through. All you had to do was make it though the time you set. As the days go on you are able to look at the whole day and say "I'll make it though" with God at your side you can make it too. Each prayer that is said in your name, each thought sent your way, and every donation goes to his ears, and he walks every step with you. God's blessings to you and yours, and keep going. Lori
09/16/2008 11:15PM
Thank you Newman
I have to say that I woke up this morning to the sound of you describing the current scene in your area and how you were struggling with your feelings of guilt and depression. I was reaching for my snooze button "one more time", when I stopped to listen. I cannot pretend to even comprehend what you have been through - I lived through the ice storm here, but we lost some trees and possibly got some damage to our cars - for the most part our homes, our sanctuaries were safe. My husband grew up in FL and most of his family is still there, they survived hurricane Charlie, but lost a lot also. While it is very difficult for you to share (and bear) yourself in such vulnerable moments, you have no idea what good you are doing. The worst part about the hurricane is all the hub-bub is waiting for it to hit, then the eye comes, and the press "moves on". We no longer get to see the need and broadcasts 24/7 on the Weather Channel, we no longer hear about the towns every day - there are other, new, fresher stories to be reported. Hearing your description brought me to tears this morning because I remember visting my in-laws a year after their tragedy and so many were STILL trying to recoup. We all need to do everything we can to help - whether it is financially, emotionally through letters and phone calls, or through prayers sent long distance. Please continue to share with us all that is going on and what your community needs most. So many of us, as others have posted, will send whatever is needed by you, your family, or your neighbors - I know my family has boxes already packed. I thank you for your continued strength in sharing your story with us. Hug your family and be glad you are all safe. I know you will continue to do what you can to help others because your heart is the size of the State in which you live. Our hearts and prayers go out to you and all your neighbors. Lots of love to you...The Rooks (AKA - the Banana Bread mom)
09/17/2008 12:51AM
God Bless Texas!
Newman- I know that you said you don't feel like you can do enough, but please think of all the people who are donating to the Red Cross- BECAUSE of YOU!! Sad to say, but you are probably right that everyone else starts to move on, but because of your strength and courage- because you are on the radio sharing with us, we can't forget. So when you feel helpless, remember what a HUGE difference is being made because of what you are doing. I am so moved by listening to you, and my heart breaks for you. It's okay to hurt, its okay to be angry and sad and frustrated- that is all part of healing. You will heal, you will overcome this, and so will your community. Keep reflecting on the strength and pride you felt when you saw those flags flying, and keep reminding yourself of how many people truly care about you and this difficult time. We have faith in you!!
09/17/2008 7:07AM

I have been listening to you every morning. It's like my job on the way to school every morning. My thoughts are with you. I can't even imagine what you're going through, and your family. Stay positive because as bad as it is, you can always get a newhouse and new things. But none of us can get another Newman=) I am happy to hear that you're safe. Stay strong. My thoughts and prays are with you. You have the whole fan country family with you. Always, Ashley.

Your Western N. Y. family cares..
We're so glad you and your family are well, and pray you are doing ok. I always felt that when you go through something, good or bad, it's a life lesson and someday, down the road, you'll be able to help someone else with your knowledge. I'm sure your spirit and nature will get you through this and you'll be able to help others. Family, friends and God will get you through... keep the faith...

Though darkness endures for the night, joy cometh with the morning. I beleive you might be familiar with that passage of scripture. It is hard to speculate what you and your townspeople have been through, but I know in my heart you were there for a reason. You have a spirited soul and see the need for things to change - you will be a catalyst and a great spokesman for the cause. May God continue to watch over Texas and you and your family specifically.

Please know my family and myself are continuing to hold you and yours in our prayers and thoughts. The road ahead will be a long one, but thankfully, you are all well and safe and will be able to make the journey together. Know that you make my mornings on the Bee Coffee Club. I look forward to all you have to say, I love your Newmaniacs songs and just listening to your thoughts and ideas make me smile. God blessed you and yours during this awful time, and He will continue to do so. My heart goes out to each and every one that this tragedy has touched, but I believe in strength in numbers, and the numbers of folks that have lost material possessions will certainly make up for that loss by cleaning up and rebuilding a stronger and safer place to live! Holding you in my heart and hugging you in my prayers!

There has been little else on our minds or in our heart lately except the welfare of you and your family. Through out the ordeal the kids were wanting to know how you were doing. We have been and to continue to pray for you and yours. You never cease to amaze us. I am so glad that T-Bird made you take a day off.You deserve it.We can only donate a small amount to the Red Cross. To make up what we can't give I'm asking everyone I talk to, to give what they can. I look at it like this, if every one gives $1 and tells everyone they talk to gives $1 and so on and so on the money should come in. We want you to know that you have a big family hug the next time we see you. In the mean time just know we're sending you hugs through the E-waves. We miss you.You and your family stay safe and healthy. The Newman Family are in our hearts, mind and most of all in our prayers. Laurie, Michael, Johnathan, Donna Davis

Friendship is what carries us through all of the trials that life throws our way. We too, the BEE listeners consider you our friend. Let our support help you in this time of need. God Bless.

Walkin's Easy When The Road is Flat!
There's a whole lot of stuff to think about in that Lonestar song... "There are times in life when you gotta crawl, Lose your grip, trip an' fall When you can't lean on no-one else: That's when you find yourself I've been around an' I've noticed that, Walkin's easier when the road is flat Them danged ol' hills'll get you every time Yeah, the good Lord gave us mountains, So we could learn how to climb" You wouldn't appreciate a thing if it weren't for those mountains! Hang in there! %u2665 Crazy Connie

I know each day is difficult because I was in Hurricane Hugo. It is extremely difficult to describe to anyone what you are seeing and experiencing each day. I listen every day and wish you your family and the survivers of hurricane IKE well. Each day will become easier and brighter and today I know that is hard to believe. The question is how many tragedies do we have to live, in order to get it right. One day at a time. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

I am praying for you!
Jeremy, I have never met you, but I listen every morning. I love the morning show with you, Terry and Steve. I am among the MANY people that you, in particular, get going in the morning. I am smiling or laughing all the way to work - and I think - what a great gift you have to provide that kind of happiness to so many people to start their day. In a way, you remind me so much of my son because he has that kind of gift as well ... very funny, even in the midst of situations that are just not funny. He is an Iraqi war veteran, and only 24. And now, the unthinkable is happening to you. Going through a "war" of your own. I can't tell you how much my heart and prayers are going out to you and your family. My prayers are all I can offer you, and I will continue to pray for your safety. I am also going to make a donation to the Red Cross. You are such a wonderful person. Listening to your raw emotion over the radio is just so humbling. I heard the comment you made on the radio yesterday, in which you said, "this is an adult moment". I can't begin to know what you are going through ... I am so glad that for the most part, Jeremy, you are safe. Please stay strong - I am sure your grandparents are so relieved to have you with them. There are so many people here that are pulling for you and that love you. Take Care Jeremy, Sandee Ciaccia (pronounced "CHA-CHA")

We are all supporting you---can you feel us lifting you up? God Bless Debbie M When you walk through a storm Hold your head up high And don't be afraid of the dark At the end of a storm is a golden sky And the sweet silver song of a lark Walk on through the wind Walk on through the rain Tho' your dreams Be tossed and blown Walk on.. Walk on.. With hope in your heart And you'll never walk alone You'll never walk alone Walk on.. Walk on.. With hope in your heart And you'll never walk alone You'll never walk alone Gerry and the PaceMakers

Week of emotions
Jeremy, I have listened to you all this week tell your stories with emotional highs and lows. It has been heart-breaking and inspiring at the same time. I'm sure you already know, but this community loves you and we pray for you and your family and all of those effected by this storm. I know it's hard to imagine now but someday all of this will be a horrible distant memory. As my nana used to say "God love ya" and we love you too. God Bless.

courage
As i have been listening to the morning show about this soemething strike me when on of the hsot stated that they couldn't understand what the police where saying about the hurricane being worse. i am a volunteer firefighter who has been through 2 hurricanes. I most say what i think you are missing is that when you fo out rather we are police of fireifghters or EMS most of the time what we are going to you can prevent. Rather its a accident, fall, or pulling soemone over for speeding, what newman is going through he couldnt prevent from happing its mother nature, i hope him the best and remeber belongs and be replace but the people can't not

Thank You
Jeremy, thank you for your true-life updates regarding Ike, from your preparation, enduring the storm and now the aftermath, you have continued to keep everyone here in Rochester up-to-date and at the same time, you are showing generosity in your time of need. When you were speaking about bringing cans of gas into your neighborhood and giving your neighbors generators to allow them to have some power to the remenants of homes, you are showing Rochester and the world your inner strength. Thankfully you and your loved ones survived the storm and are now providing others with help as well as giving us in Rochester a way to assist as well. As long as you need it, we will help, long after the news channels move on to the next "big story" we are here for you. Our thoughts and prayers are with you during the aftermath...
09/20/2008 7:20PM
Everyone is praying
Jeremy, the best to you and your family. We are praying every week for all of the hurricane victims at my church. Keep your chin up and have faith. May God Bless all of you. Take one day at a time. Keep your faith. Take care. One of the BEE listeners!
