Friends and family, our
Brighton Dr. Santa Rosa compound and casita is nothing more than ashes today, October 9 2017. Many of our Reibli school family friends also lost their homes we are all shocked. While we have a decent insurance plan there will be many expenses that we will struggle to afford on a single income. Tait lost everything, no wallet, no clothes and no way to recover the cost of his truck. He is heartbroken and shaken after spending hours in embers surrounding him with black smoke and watching our neighborhood burn up. He risked his life to save his beloved garden and our beautiful home the new office casita and our cats Cocoa and Ruby. From midnight till 2AM he fought the blaze with a garden hose trying to save it all. I left with this kids when he was on the roof trying to fight off the blaze. A single fire truck in the neighborhood would have saved the home but there was no help. This fund will be used to help our family bridge anticipated gaps in insurance. Re: vehicle fund for Tait (2 of our cars will need to replace as there is no insurance coverage), identification cards, etc. Thank you for your kind messages and concern. We are humbled by your kind words and support.

Amber, Tait, Loren and  baby Seth Watkins Smith and our paw pals.
