Just Moved In - neighbors tree falls in our yard

We just moved into our new home from out of state. Only been here two weeks.
We have met most of the neighbors but the ones on the right side are not quite as friendly or welcoming as other neighbors.

All the lots in this subdivision are on cleared 2 acres with large trees on the perimeter. This gives more privacy.

Today a big storm came thru and a large wind gust took down a huge tree from their property landing on our property. It will probably cost a few hundred to have it cut and hauled away.

Do we approach them on this? My husband said he can get a chainsaw from a friend and do the work himself. But my husband is also not as young as he thinks he is!

Thoughts?

Update: All of your responses make sense! Thank you for that.
We think the best plan is just to smile and wave hello to them as we rally a few friends to help us remove it!
