Help Ruth Lopez Rebuild Her Home

Donation protected

As many of you know, Ruth Vincent Lopez lost everything in a house fire last night. She woke up to tapping sounds on her bedroom window, looked out her curtain, and saw flames everywhere. She tried to go outside to put it out, but when she opened her kitchen door, the heat and the smoke were too intense. She shut the door, grabbed her phone, her eyeglasses, and her dog, Copper, and ran across the street while she called 911. She escaped physically unharmed, and for that we can only thank her guardian angel, husband and love of her life, Kenneth Jude Lopez.

 

Granny only has the nightgown she had on, and the items she grabbed mentioned above. She didn't even grab shoes. After digging through the ash and char today, very little has been recovered. Virtually all of her belongings are gone, and after 50+ years in her home, she has to completely start over. Many of you have reached out to members of the family, asking us what you can do or where to help, so we made this for Granny.

 

On behalf of the entire family, we appreciate your continued prayers, love and support.
