Early this morning on Christmas Day, my life changed forever.

I lost my home in a house fire, and the house is now uninhabitable. I lost everything inside; clothes, furniture, personal belongings, and memories that can never be replaced.

This home means more to me than words can explain. It’s the house I was born in, the home my grandmother left to me, and a place I have lived in for over 20 years. It has been in my family my entire life, and losing it has been devastating.

I am a father to three boys, and my dog Drak Pak they also had personal belongings in the home that were lost in the fire. Thankfully, we survived the fire, but right now I’m not sure where we will be able to stay, which adds to the uncertainty during this time.

This has been overwhelming, especially happening on Christmas Day.

I don’t normally ask for help, but right now I truly need it. Any donations will go toward temporary housing, clothing, basic necessities, pet care, and the long process of rebuilding and recovery. Any amount helps, and even sharing this page means more to me than I can express.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your kindness, prayers, and support during this incredibly difficult time.
