"I got my son’s teddy bear … we didn’t think it would come to this," Randi Marcucio, the homeowner and single mother told WTNH.
A GoFundMe has been created to help Marcucio and her three-year-old son.
Tragically, officials said the flooding took the lives of two other residents who were swept away by the flood.
