Help Connor After Tragic Loss in House Fire

Donation protected
Help my friend after his tragic loss of his mother Lisa, pets, home, in a tragic house fire.

I wanted to start this by asking to please take a moment to read this story, even to send a kind word, prayer, or thought for one of the most genuine, kind, loving people I know. My name is Johnny Pence. Connor, who is one of my best friends (more like a brother), has recently had to endure an unimaginable tragedy.
His beautiful mother Lisa tragically lost her life in a house fire, along with his two family pets, and in a single moment, his entire world was turned upside down. He not only lost his mom but returned from work that day trying to enter the house and save her from the place he called home. He lost that and every bit of stability that came with it. After even breaking windows desperately trying to find and save his mother, he was rushed to the hospital with smoke inhalation.

Since then, he’s had to make the heartbreaking decision to leave everything behind and relocate to a different state, trying to find a start from nothing. He’s grieving, overwhelmed, and trying his best, but the weight of it all is just too heavy to carry alone.

This isn’t easy for him to ask for help. But I’m asking for him because I’ve seen firsthand how much he’s hurting and how hard he’s trying to put his life back together. Right now, he needs a little light during this darkest time.

The funds raised will go directly toward helping him with basic needs: rent, food, clothes, transportation, and anything that can help him feel a little more secure while he finds his footing again.
Which I know he will do with the help of us.

Please know it will make a difference. And if you can’t donate, just sharing this means more than you know. Thank you for taking the time to read this and for showing love to someone who truly needs it right now.

Rest In Peace Lisa,
and their beloved pets Capone and Millie.
