Help Viola Rebuild After Devastating Fire

In the early hours of March 5, 2025, tragedy struck Viola Brown’s home in Church Hill. A fast-moving fire engulfed the historic house, leaving nothing behind but portions of the exterior frame. Viola, her husband Jerry, and her son Mane (Clifford) narrowly escaped, but she remains hospitalized in the ICU due to severe smoke inhalation.

At 81 years old, Viola has lost everything—her home of 60 years, her belongings, and the place she built a lifetime of memories. She now faces the unimaginable task of starting over with nothing but the nightgown she wore to bed.

Viola has been a beloved part of this community, always offering kindness and a warm smile to neighbors from her front porch. Now, we have the chance to show her the same love she has given so many. Please consider donating to help Viola and her family rebuild. Every contribution makes a difference.
