Our hearts are heavy as we share that our family member Gary Richard has experienced a devastating fire and lost everything. He barely escaped with his life and the clothes on his back. In a matter of moments, his home and all of his belongings were gone.

Right now, Gary has absolutely nothing. He will be staying with family while next steps are figured out, but the road ahead is long and overwhelming.

We’ve started a GoFundMe to help him begin again — to cover basic necessities like clothing, food, and essential items, and to support him as he works toward rebuilding his life.

If you’re able to donate, any amount truly helps. If you can’t donate, please consider sharing this post. Your kindness, prayers, and support mean more than words during this incredibly difficult time.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
