Almeda fire causes loss of home & all belongings

On Tuesday 09/08/2020 a horrific fire ravaged through our small valley starting in Ashland where Michelle works.
Neither Michelle or Allen were able to to get any of their belongings from their house.
By the time they were able to get to their town the fire was too dangerous to get anywhere close to their neighborhood.
Over 600 homes were destroyed in Talent alone, many more in total from the Almeda Fire.
Michelle and Allen stayed with friends in a nearby town waiting anxiously to find out if their home was destroyed. Early the next morning they found out that they lost everything.
They were both left with only their vehicles and the  clothes they went to work in on this tragic day last Tuesday.
We know that both Michelle and Allen would never ask for anything on their own, this is why we are asking for others to come together for them.
Michelle and Allen are very hardworking, prideful and independent.
 We ask you to please consider joining us  to help get them back on their feet.
There is no complete recovery from something like this, we are hoping to help ease this heartbreaking loss for them.
