Hi, My name is Miranda Groh and I am the President of Spencer Hall in Franklin, TN. The Board of Directors is trying to fundraise for Mr Ray Ware in an effort to help him start over. On Tues, March 15th at approximately 6:45pm Mr Ray’s house caught fire and he literally lost everything. Thanks to God’s Grace and Mercy Mr Ray had left the house right before it caught fire so he wasn’t hurt, however he lost his beloved dog Samwise in the fire. He was also dog sitting for his son’s dog Onyx who was resuscitated and taken to Blue Pearl Veterinary Hospital, but unfortunately they ended up having to put him down as the lack of oxygen was just too severe for him to pull through. We are asking all who can, to help this wonderful man get back on his feet again. The vet bill alone was almost $2500 and he will have to replace everything. He is staying in a hotel while looking for temporary housing.
