A Goss Lake Road family who lost their home to a fire Monday believes their housing troubles are over.

Charlotte Griffin said Friday morning they were expected to sign a lease on a rental property in Freeland later that afternoon, after The Record went to press. She, her husband Kenneth Griffin and their 15-year-old grandson were staying at the Harbor Inn since the fire.

The Northwest Washington Chapter of the American Red Cross helped with the bills, and the community has been extraordinarily supportive, Griffin said.

“We’ve got so many people calling to help… people we know, people we don’t know; it’s just been overwhelming,” she said.

Clothes, monetary donations, household appliances, even food has been contributed. The Freeland Cafe gave the family a $200 voucher for meals, Griffin said.

“We want to thank everyone from the bottom of our hearts,” she added.

A relief fund under the Griffins’ name has been set up at Chase Bank, and monetary donations can be made there.
