It is with great sadness that we let you know that the Benjamin family lost their home in a fire, Sunday evening, April 18th.   While the home and vehicles are a total loss (fire started in the garage) everyone was able to get out safely, along with both the dogs and cats.  

The fire was intentionally set by a young man who was apprehended shortly after emergency responders arrived.  It ended up being a two alarm fire with not only firefighters called out but the police from Los Gatos and sheriffs from the county as well.

Simona's work family is sending out this request for funds to help pay for some of their expenses.  Please be as generous as you can.  Thank you.
