Man Seeks Help to Help Sister Who Lost Home in 'Devastating' Fire

SOUTHAMPTON, NY — A Southampton man is reaching out to help his sister, who lost her home and all her family's possessions in a fire recently.

Arthur Andersen of Southampton created a GoFundMe page, "Help Family Recover From Fire"; the page has raised $320 of its $2,500 goal so far.

"As most of you know by now my sister Margaret Andersen-Rossetti and her family have lost the home they were living in for the last several years to fire," Andersen wrote on the page. "Everyone was able to get out safely. Unfortunately. they lost all contents. It was a rental and there was no insurance. The loss is devastating."

For those wishing to help, donations, including gift cards, can be sent to First United Methodist Church, 1204 Redington Avenue, Troy, PA, 16947. Please put "Rossetti Family" in the memo line; the church will ensure donations are directed to the family, Andersen said.
