Hill family home devastated by fire

Dr. David Hill and his wife, Janie, achieved their dream of living in the country many years ago when they settled in Cuero with their three children: Dana, Ryan, and Corey. But on March 23, around 11:30 p.m., Janie let the dogs out and spotted a fire. Soon, they were rushing into the night, fleeing their home barefoot and disoriented.

Dr. David Hill and his wife, Janie, achieved their dream of living in the country many years ago when they settled in Cuero with their three children: Dana, Ryan, and Corey. But on March 23, around 11:30 p.m., Janie let the dogs out and spotted a fire. Soon, they were rushing into the night, fleeing their home barefoot and disoriented.

Unfortunately, despite the efforts of firefighters, the home burned down in the night.

Among the smoldering ruins were the remains of cherished family photos, wedding dresses, and invaluable heirloom jewelry. All now reduced to cinders. In the aftermath, Janie mourns the loss of so many irreplaceable items and wistfully wishes she had gone back to save more from the fire. Surprisingly, Dr. Hill's workshop survived.
