Costly cleanup facing North Sound residents after tree fell on 4 mobile homes

Some North Sound residents are counting their blessings that no one was hurt when a massive tree fell onto their mobile homes.

Now, the big cleanup is underway.

That tree came down on four homes in the Martha Lake Mobile Home Park on Lakeview Road in Lynnwood.

It caused extensive damage, and now homeowners are worried about having to foot the bill for the repairs.

This could pose a considerable hardship for these families.

They don’t have homeowners insurance, and it is obvious how much damage was done. That huge tree came down without warning.

The extensive damage in this section of the Martha Lake Mobile Home Park is quite a sight.

A gust of wind Saturday afternoon knocked a massive tree to the ground.

It fell on four mobile homes in its path.

“Dad was home, chopping wood, a gust of wind out of nowhere,” said Eduardo Mendoza-Perez.  “And they’re like something doesn’t sound right. They felt a bunch of shaking.”

“Their house shook,” his wife, Silvia, said.

“Yeah, their neighbor’s house shook,” Eduardo agreed.
