Help support Athena and Ellie and FAMILY After Tragic Fire

Hello Friends... Mark and Jayne Briggs here... An unthinkable nightmare occurred on July 19th, 2024 to very special family members to us. Our granddaughters' home that they were living in with their mother Rose and their grandparents had a house fire resulting in the loss of memories, property, and life. It's a total loss.

Sadly, their Nana and Papa (Jeff and Bonnie Grindle) did not survive the fire. Our two granddaughters and their mother Rose were living with them and were home at the time...

Our eight-year-old Athena suffered severe burns. Her six-year-old sister was treated and released... Their mother Rose was also airlifted to Iowa City... the three have since been released, but have a long road ahead of them...

Our heroes Violet and Sean and Rose have been with our Athena and Ellie and have not left their side... they have given every bit of their love, hearts, and home to our granddaughters...

Anything we can give them to help with the girls will be greatly appreciated... if you cannot afford to donate, please just send prayers... this family rocks... and we are so blessed to have them in our lives...Our Story
