On Friday, July 26, 2024, Bobbi Jo (Bickford) & Mike Appleton had a house fire. Caledonia, Mumford, and Avon fire departments responded. No one was home when the fire broke out. The fire department members were able to save the dogs and one cat, but unfortunately, 2 cats did not survive.

Sadly, the house is a total loss. Red Cross did assist them Friday evening and the family is staying at a hotel for the time being. Any financial help you are able to give to them will be very much appreciated.
