The Town Manager would like to help and collect clothes for him since he lost everything.  If anyone knows what size he wears or would like to donate, please call Town Hall (301-791-0948) so she can collect clothes to help him out.  Any new or gently used clothes would be greatly appreciated to help get him back on his feet.
