Thoughts and Prayers needed for Chef Chris

Chris and his wife are OK as are the dogs, but there was a bad fire over at his house. Lots of fire and smoke damage.

From Chris on FB:

Quote:
Absolutely devastated right now and just at a lose for words.
Last night some type of fire (the fire dept thinks electrical) tore thru our living room and completely engulf the house in thick black smoke.



Our dogs were rescued by Warren fire dept, they are all safe, Rocky had to go the ER for observation but is doing good and should be home tonight. Milo and kona are doing great, my mom is watching them currently.



Jen spent the night in the hospital for smoke inhalation/light burns from trying to find the dogs. I have some light burns and crushed knuckle from trying to punch a window out.



Just an insane night, but everyone is safe and material things can be replaced.



We lost everything, I got to look around last night and I don't think anything is salvageable.



Our neighbors were great, thank you for the help and support.
The Warren Fire and Police departments were incredible and saved the day.



Thank you to everyone who reached out and helped last night.
We are staying in a hotel that's dog friendly so at least we can all be together.

Crushing news, Chris.... After illness, injury, and loss of life, a house fire is the worst experience one can have IMO.

Let me know where I can send a check, to the same address, or somewhere else, to help with things immediately. Everywhere you turn will be something that needs to be replaced.

Give me a call or text if you find time. If only to bounce ideas about logistics and what next step is at any point in time. We are here when you need us.

Whoa Chris, that sounds like a close call. Ultimately the thing that will suck the most is the pictures you lost. Shout me for some fishing to get your mind off things
