Family’s home destroyed in massive Golden Gate Estates fire

A family is picking up the pieces after a fire destroyed their home. The fire melted the walls of this Golden Gate Estates home turning the inside unrecognizable. This family discusses their next steps and tells us where they go from here.

From the outside, this home doesn’t look destroyed but if you take a closer look, you’ll see the damage.

Johnathan and Tracey Perez are the homeowners. “It rolled into my daughter’s room which is a complete devastation here,” Johnathan said.

The Perez family lost their home in the fire that has since consumed about 1,500 acres.

“My 14-year-old has nothing left, nothing. Every memory, everything, sorry,” Tracey said, in tears.

All of them now have nothing left.

“You can tell everything here is pretty much… it’s charred, it’s smoke damage everywhere,” said Johnathan.

There wasn’t even enough time for Tracey’s grandson to grab his shoes.

“He doesn’t even have shoes. His shoes are gone because he was barefoot. My 16 year old she ended up in an ambulance down there because her asthma was so bad and I had no clue what was going on because I was here,” said Tracey.
