Hi everyone,

I’m reaching out with a heavy heart to share that earlier today, a devastating fire broke out in my father’s home. It started in my sister’s bedroom and quickly engulfed much of the house. In just minutes, the place we’ve all called home for so many years was left in ruins. The damage is extensive, and sadly, the house is no longer livable.

What’s even more heartbreaking is that we lost our three beloved cats — Leo, Lady, and Diesel — in the fire. They were more than pets to us; they were family, constant sources of comfort and joy. Their absence is deeply felt and has added to the weight of this tragedy.

My family is safe, and for that we’re incredibly grateful — but we are now faced with the overwhelming challenge of starting over. The emotional toll is heavy, and the road ahead is uncertain.

We’re asking for help — any help — to get through this. Whether it’s a donation, a share, or just keeping us in your thoughts, it all means more than we can express. Funds raised will go toward temporary housing, replacing essentials, and beginning the long process of rebuilding what was lost.

This is one of the hardest things we’ve ever gone through, and we’re leaning on the love and support of our community to help us through it. If you’re able to give, thank you from the bottom of our hearts. If you can’t, please consider sharing this page with others. Every little bit helps more than you know.

With love and gratitude,

Crystal and Family
