Paducah Family Loses Home To Fire For Second Time
KENTUCKY...
A family has lost their home to fire for the second time.
Rick Morgan says his family lost their first home to a blaze 13 years ago this month. Earlier this week the tragedy repeated itself when the Morgans lost all of their possessions in the fire.
Morgan told WPSD-TV in Paducah the family will be living out of the funeral home they operate in Princeton, just like they did when their first home burned.
Morgan says harsh winds on Wednesday night fueled the blaze, making it difficult for firefighters to extinguish. Morgan says he believes the fire started with a heat lamp being used in an outdoor breezeway. The family turned the lamp on during cold nights to keep their outdoor pets warm.
