"We all have to take care of each other and treat each other with that same level of respect and integrity, and that’s why it’s important to us,” said John Legg, Station Chief for Station 1-1 Rescue Lifeline Association.

Strangers put their lives on the line to offer a helping hand, too.

"I've got friends that live in Braggs, and they need supplies. We're going to get them there," said Fort Gibson resident Shane Frix.

Supplies were delivered by boat to those in need, and the call was answered to help make sure victims knew they were not alone.

“It is nice to still see people coming out and dedicating their time. We are happy to be here to help do that effectively," said David Bock with Texas Conservation Corps.
