A dear friend and coworker lost her home, cars, and barn due to a house fire late Monday night. She, her husband and two young daughters were able to escape and are safe; however, they have lost everything, including clothing, toys, household items and furniture. We are asking for any assistance this Christmas season to help this family get back on their feet, purchase a car, clothing and toys. This is a tough time as they try to figure out where they will stay for the Christmas holiday as well as the next number of months while their home is rebuilt.
