Hello Donegal Park and surrounding neighbors, my name is Rita, I live across the street from the Vernon's. They had a devastating house fire on September 3rd/Labor Day weekend. Thankfully, Steve and Joanne and their puppy, Nellie, made it out safely. A number of neighbors reached out to me to ask how they could help. I'm setting up this Go Fund Me, on their behalf, if you'd like to donate to their home/rebuild. Unfortunately, their house was a total loss, including two vehicles, and 70+ years of memories. They are an active/awesome retired couple, and they plan to rebuild. Thank you for your consideration.

*The couple asks that everyone please take the time to check and clean your ceiling exhaust fans. The fire started in their laundry room where there was not a smoke alarm.
