A family who lost their dream home to raging floodwaters off Lake Delton on Monday doesn't have insurance to cover their loss.

The Fromm family appeared on NBC's Today Show Wednesday morning.

The water swept their home away in a matter of seconds.

Tim Fromm says the family lost nearly everything it had, but it's the personal things his family will miss most of all.

"You can replace furniture, TV's and everything else but it's the memories. We have no pictures of our younger daughter anymore. We had binders and binders and books of pictures of all the kids growing up, just all of those things,” Fromm said.

The home had been the family's second home in the past but the Fromm's say they liked the area so much they moved their permanently before it was washed away.

Two other homes on the lake were washed away. The water damaged another two houses.
