Wildfire Near Mountainair: “Couple Lose Almost Everything”
The Albuquerque Journal: Couple Lose Almost Everything in Fire, but Still Have Hope. Fortunately, an evacuation order issued to area residents was lifted on Friday by Torrance County. However, not everyone is returning to what they left:
MOUNTAINAIR— Two terrified dogs roamed the blackened forest with their tails between their legs. Four cats mewed as they looked for shelter underneath a fallen metal roof. Nearby, their 70-year-old owner Ursula Torres sat on a rock and looked at what was left of her and her husband’s dreams.
Our prayers are with them.
