Devastated

Emma Lea looks over the fire damage that ruined her childhood home and destroyed a lifetime of memories in the early hours of Tuesday morning. The home belongs to her mother, Pam Stevens, who not only lived there for the past 30 years, but ran a day care out of the home. Firefighters were on the scene around 2:30 a.m. and spent four hours attempting to save the home while winds whipped the flames and smoke filled several blocks. A fund has been set up by the Day care Association to help Stevens with expenses. Donations may be made in her name at Central Bank and Trust.
