On October, 9th 2025, my dad, Thurman, lost his home in a devastating fire here in Destin, FL. Thankfully, he is safe, but the fire destroyed nearly everything he owned.

My dad has worked at The Home Depot in Destin for 15 years, where he’s known for always lending a helping hand. Over the years, he’s helped several local contractors and neighbors with all kinds of work — yard work, moving, small repairs, and any odd jobs people needed done. That’s just the kind of person he is — always willing to help others without hesitation.

Now he’s the one who needs our help. We’re raising funds to support him with temporary housing, clothing, essentials, and replacing items lost in the fire. Every donation, no matter how small, will help him rebuild and find stability after this devastating loss.

If you’re unable to donate, please consider sharing this page so others can learn about his story. Our family is deeply grateful for the outpouring of love, prayers, and support during this difficult time.

From the bottom of my heart — thank you for helping my dad, Thurman, get back on his feet. ❤️
