Families Lose All on Memorial Day Weekend

While most families were out grilling on the patio, 130 people were trying to figure out how to move forward after a fatal fire devastated their apartment complex. At the time of this posting, three lives have been lost in this fire. A mother and her infant baby and one man were found inside the building. Seven people were tranported to area hospitals. Like all of us, we know that your hearts go out to these families. Please know the Red Cross is with them and will continue to be until we're no longer needed.
