82 year old Allan Ruttan who lost everything.
Donation protected
Hi, I'm Judy Vanclieaf and I am raising money for my 82-year-old Uncle Alan Ruttan who experienced a house fire and the death of his wife.
At approximately 9:50 pm, on Christmas day, Uncle Allan and Aunt Anita's house went up in flames.
They both made it out with only the clothes on their backs.
Due to the very deep snow that accumulated in our area, Aunt Anita had a hard time wading through and ended up having a massive heart attack.
Sadly she died.
Uncle Allan is staying with his one daughter Vanessa, so he has a roof over his head for now. There will be other things he will need as he processes his situation and comes out of the shock over the next few months of losing his wife of 37 years and his home.
Unfortunately, they were not covered by insurance for the house.
The first order of business is to pay for Aunt Anita's funeral which will cost a little over 5000.
the rest will go to help Uncle Allan reestablish himself.
Anything you can contribute will be gratefully received.
Thank you on behalf of my Uncle Allan Ruttan and his family.
