• My aunt's home burned down last night
    32 replies, posted
Late last night I just received news that while my aunt, uncle, and cousin were away in Florida, their home in Ohio burned down. Gone is their entire house, their two cars that were in the garage, and my uncle's massive Ohio State souvenir collection. The entire basement was covered in Ohio State stuff. As you just gathered, they were not in the home at the time, however their two dogs and cat were not very lucky. They were caught in the fire and the three died :/ Shortly after the fire started, one of the neighbors called 911 and then tried breaking into the house to free the pets, but it was far to hot for them to do so. I'm not sure what to think about all this. To be honest, I can kind of deal with losing all my shit in a fire, but losing my pets... man I don't even know. They were good dogs too. The cat was always afraid of me though, but still. I kept on dreaming about it all last night. You never think these things will ever happen to you or someone you're close to. It's always "some other person." Although it's terrible news when you hear it happen to someone else, it hurts even more when it affects someone in your family. Here is a poorly written news article: [URL]http://www.10tv.com/content/stories/2011/09/16/reynoldsburg-fire-damages-home.html[/URL] The article mentions the fire did more than 300,000 dollars in damage. What you have to consider, even though it was a pretty big house, property values where they live are extremely low so the entire house was probably worth around that much. There's no repairing it the home. Just tearing it down and rebuilding.
Aww :( I am soo sorry to hear about your pets and the house. Atleast your family is okay :smile:

How did the fire start?

[QUOTE=Applecrap;32320857]How did the fire start?[/QUOTE] Investigation is still pending. I think recall someone saying it was most likely an electrical fire. It usually is.

Losing all of my stuff would make me sad, but having my pets dying in such a terrible way would actually make me cry. I feel your (and your aunt's) loss, OP. Losing a pet is like losing your best friend

He's making the analogy that because Recco thinks its funny, that he will laugh as well if his own house were to burn down. Get it? now stop being such a bitch Condolences to your family OP.

I said possible death/injury. Just the fucking smoke can kill in two breaths of it. I'm not being a bitch. I'm saying what EVERYONE has on their mind, Not just that but he's obviously butthurt, He's acting all traumatized when it was his aunt, I feel sorry for her but not for him, He's probably sat on his ass drinking Mtn Dew(yes that is the correct spelling).

Maybe you could have saved something but nope, too late to do anything but make a thread and deal death threats. Stay classy.
Funny how you've taken the time out of your day to rate me dumb in every single post, Was that worth it? AUTOMERGEEEEE

I can't believe people rate funny if there's some kind of disaster or death involved. Why? To ensure you're creating drama? Jesus christ. That's just fucking low.

The whole thing seemed to detailed to be made up.

They live in Ohio. I live in MD. I have absolutely no money. I already called them and talked to them. Their insurance is going to cover every penny of the damages. Also you doubt I volunteer at a fire station? [IMG]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/99577/volunteer%20id.jpg[/IMG] I also just enlisted in the Army National Guard too. I'm doing more with my life than you can ever dream about. Please leave this thread and don't come back.
