GoFundMe launched for Sennett family after house fire
Laurie Guzewicz was watching TV in bed at about 10 p.m. Monday when she noticed what appeared to be a spotlight in her window.
Her husband, Charlie, got up to investigate. It wasn t a spotlight â the roof of their Sennett home was on fire.
Less than an hour later, the Guzewiczes and their children Kyle and Meghan were standing outside the 3262 Walker Road home, watching it burn. I couldn t believe it was me, Laurie Guzewicz told The Citizen Tuesday morning. We were numb.
Guzewicz called 911 immediately after she and her husband saw the fire. By the time she got to her front door, emergency backpack in hand, a police officer was there. Several neighbors who noticed the fire had called 911 before her, she later learned. The whole family was able to walk out of the burning structure without difficulty, she said, and no one was hurt.
