Bobby Lafitte, a veteran, says he was grilling for the holiday when the grill burst into flames. Until Friday, Bobby and his wife, Debbie, were sleeping in a small camper. The Shreveport Volunteer Network was instrumental in helping the couple clean up after the devastating fire. St. Luke’s United Methodist Church also organized a fundraiser to help the couple in the aftermath of the fire.
The Lafittes lost everything in the fire, and escaped only with the clothes on their backs.
