Fire destroy Sparta family’s home and possessions

SPARTA — A Sparta, Illinois family who lost their Ridge Road home in a fire Sunday morning is asking for help from their community.

 

According to the woman’s mother, her daughter managed to get their three kids, three dogs, and a cat out of the house before it burned down.

 

But none of the family’s clothing or other possessions were saved.

As a result, they need clothing, diapers, school supplies for her son, shoes — mainly the necessities.

 

The clothing sizes needed are:

 

Woman’s 2xl and xl in pants

Man’s 2xl and large in pants

Boys 4/5t clothes 13 shoes

Girls 2/3t clothes 7/8 shoes

Girls 18 months to 2t size 4-5 in shoes

Size 7 diapers

 

They have three children: a five-year-old boy and two girls, aged three years and 15 months.

 

Anything would be helpful and appreciated.
