My family just recently moved to the palisades. They had just gotten settled when the holidays rolled around. We had the most amazing Christmas in that house. When the news came about the fire starting, we thought that much like all the fires of the past, there was no way our house would be at risk. My family lost everything. All the artwork my dad made his entire life. All the photographs of my child hood. Countless books and records. Motorcycles, furniture, jewelry, the million little things you amass over a lifetime that make up your life and hold so many memories. Unfortunately and unexpectedly gone. Left with the clothes on their backs. They have to start fresh. Any little thing helps.
