Friends, family, and kind-hearted strangers of East Longmeadow and beyond,

With a heavy heart, I reach out to you after a devastating tragedy. Our home was recently destroyed in a fire. We were celebrating a surprise visit from a beloved military family member when the fire broke out. Thankfully, everyone is safe, but the house and everything in it is gone.

The loss is overwhelming, and we are now starting from scratch. We are securing temporary housing, replacing essential items, and beginning to rebuilding our lives. Any contribution, no matter how small, will make a significant difference.

Your generosity and support mean the world to us during this difficult time. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
