Hi, my name is Thomas Peretic.

I think most people in Grand Forks know about the house fire last night.

Our dear friends, Ritchie and Rene Day, have lost their home, and all their possessions in this fire. Thankfully they got out safe, but sadly very loved pets were lost.

As an elderly, retired couple, this is going to be a very difficult time for them. And I was hoping we could come together as a community, and help them lessen the burden just a little bit. I know we’ve done it before, and I’m sure we can do it again!

we will also be accepting household goods and clothes, when the time is right.

thank you so much, and any amount would be greatly appreciated.
