Help Vivian and Her Daughters Rebuild After House Fire

Dear friends, family, and kind strangers,

I am writing on behalf of Vivian Bales and her two daughters, Lisa and Jennifer Francis, who are going through an unimaginable loss. On Friday, October 4th, around 9 PM, their family home was taken by a devastating fire.

During this horrible incident, Vivian’s partner, Vaughn Francis, tragically lost his life. The pain and loss this family is enduring is beyond words. Their neighbor Phil, a true hero, saved their beloved dog Mohawk. While Mohawk is safe, their white cat Felix is still missing and may be somewhere in the Mary Lake area. We’re all holding onto hope for Felix’s safe return.

As they struggle to cope with the emotional trauma, they are also facing the financial burden of cremation expenses for Vaughn. Beyond this, they need help to begin rebuilding their lives from the ground up. Everything they had was lost in the fire, and starting over is a daunting challenge.

I’m reaching out to ask for your help. Any amount you can donate will go directly to support this family during this tough time. The immediate need is for cremation costs, and any remaining funds will be used to help them start over after losing their home and belongings.

Thank you for your generosity, compassion, and love. Your support means the world to Vivian, Lisa, Jennifer, and all of us who care for their family.
