An Eighty-One-Year-Old Starts Over After Fire | Spokane News
Description
An 81-year-old Spokane resident, Larry, lost his entire home—filled with 58 years of memories with his late wife Linda—in a wildfire that struck just days after her passing. With nothing but the clothes on his back and a new puppy, he’s rebuilding with the support of family, friends, and an unexpectedly compassionate community. His doctor and pharmacy stepped in to cover prescriptions, and though he’s devastated by the loss of cars, tools, and books, he finds solace in the love around him. This heartbreaking yet resilient story is one of many unfolding across Spokane as wildfires continue to reshape lives—and remind us to cherish every moment.
