Two days ago our Dad's life changed forever when a devastating fire ripped through his home. The fire moved so quickly that there was no time to react or save anything. We're incredibly grateful he made it out alive and safe, but the loss has been heartbreaking. The fire destroyed all of his belongings and tragically took the life of his dog and best friend Humphrey.

If you know our Dad he is the first to step up and lend a hand when someone needs help. He is a devoted father and friend, always willing to take the coat off his back to make sure someone else is ok. He's the kind of person who shows up for others without hesitation. Seeing someone who has helped others so much face such devastating loss has been incredibly difficult for all of us.

Today, our family is faced with the overwhelming task of rebuilding from nothing. Our Dad needs help replacing essential items, and securing a long-term place to stay. If you are able to give, please know that any contribution—big or small—will make a meaningful difference. Your support will help him regain stability, find comfort during this painful time, and begin rebuilding his life with dignity. Thank you in advance for your kindness, and your generosity. We are deeply grateful for every donation and every share. In moments like this, friends, family and community mean everything, and your support reminds us that we are not alone.

Love,

Mitch, Dylan and Carolanne
