Jim & Donna Jillson

Hi, my name is Laurie Jillson, and I am Jim & Donna's daughter in law. Jim and Donna are currently residing in Arizona and have been for 3 years. They still own a home at 161 Bog Road in Rockland.

On a trip, back to visit family, they discovered people LIVING in their home. NOT renters, people that just decided that just living there would be fine. As they checked further into this, it was seen that the house was SEVERELY DAMAGED, possibly beyond repair. Upon discovering this, they served the occupants with an eviction notice for Nov. 15.

On Nov. 15, at 5:15, we received a call telling us that the house was on fire. Nightmare comes true! The "house" that was the home of my husband and his sisters growing up, the place that the grandchildren loved to go most.... was no more. The home was not completely destroyed by the fire but will never be able to be a "home" again. Broken windows, demolished sheds, holes everywhere, words can't even describe it. Old cars, washers, you name it, it has been dumped at this property. You cannot even access the driveway.

Jim & Donna have now been told that THEY are responsible for ALL of it. They need to find a way to secure the property to prevent re entrance, remove all of the debris, and then they can try to see what if anything can be done.

This is going to be an expensive clean up, that no one was prepared for. If anyone can help them, it would be so appreciated. Any amount, a share, or prayers would be so wonderful!

Let's help these wonderful people, who have helped and served others their whole lives.
