Help Brian & Trish Rebuild After Fire
Donation protected
Fire Update:
As most of you know, our home caught on fire last Friday afternoon. Thankfully, no one was home, and we are all safe. The Firemen were able to rescue our family dog/6th child Charlie. They also rescued our 15 y.o. hermit crab (thanks Seaside Heights), Spotty.
Old wiring was the cause of the fire.
So many emotions have overwhelmed us these last few days. Not sure if we are coming or going! Moments of tears, fears, anxiety and then laughter at other times. Sadness over what cannot be replaced reminds us that the priority is: our family are alive and safe!
So many of you have reached out with texts and calls to offer support. There have been so many generous donations that have helped with the immediate expenses. I cannot express enough gratitude!
I wanted to say Thank You to Family, Friends, Friends of Family, Friends of the Kids, Coworkers, Neighbors and anyone I may have forgotten!
Much love and thanks!

On Friday, 1/31/25, Brian and Trish's lives were changed forever. The home that they had built over the last decade was in flames. Due to the quick action of their neighbors and their grandson Jon calling 911, multiple fire departments were on site within minutes. The fire department rescued the family dog Charlie, who is more like Brian and Trish's 6th child, from the fire with no injuries, which we are all so thankful for.
The family was able to quickly go into the house once the scene was deemed "safe" and grabbed a few belongings. Seeing everything they own be burnt completely or damaged by water was just tragic. As the family moved around the first floor, grabbing only the necessities, they saw how bad the damage really was.
They have now been left with almost nothing, which is why the family has decided to ask for any help they can get. Brian and Trish have worked in healthcare for over 20 years, dedicating their lives to others. Now, it is our turn to show them that that has not gone unnoticed.
