Rising from the ashes

It is now 2 months past the loss of Iris in the devastating house fire that took her life, leaving her family homeless. The family was staying with relatives but have FOUND A HOME!!! They were really hoping to stay in Wyandotte, however that was not possible, but they are just up Fort street in Lincoln Park. They are settling in quite nicely and again wanted to thank everyone in the community who showed their support. Everyone is set on clothing now, but as they have settled in their home, they have discovered some needs for those who are still looking to help: glasses, dishes (plates and bowls) and a tv stand. There is an additonal need that Dena has not thought of.....HOLIDAY DECORATIONS.....this is something I don't think people think of but the season is approaching. Over all, every one in the family is doing as well as to be expected, they have good days and rough ones as anyone would expect. They take great comfort in knowing that there are people behind them in their quest to rebuild from tragedy. 
If you are able to help, contact Dena directly 313-598-8055 or email at angelrainbowinspirations@gmail.com. Thanks.
