Fire Destroys Andrew Area Home

Michelle Pinon News Advertiser

A devastating house fire that destroyed an Andrew area home on Feb. 20 has prompted Taylor Winda to start a gofundme page for the family.

Winda said the fundraiser is for John and Jared Perepeletza. “At 2 am yesterday morning their home caught fire while no one was home, in twenty minutes everything had burned. Thankfully no one was hurt, but sadly everything they have is gone.”

Winda is a care aide and helps occasionally for Jared who has Cerebral Palsy. His father cares for him at home as he requires 24 hour care. “Jared lost his power wheelchair, all his medical supplies to feed him and clothing.”

Unfortunately, the family did not have insurance on the home.
