The dangerous winter storm that is devastating Texas has caused a need for food and other items at hospitals across the Lone Star State.
Icy conditions, and power and water outages have disrupted the supply chain across the state, and medical staff and patients are also being affected.
The Texas Restaurant Association has a list of hospitals that need assistance as another round of wintry weather drops snow in parts of South and Central Texas.
UPDATE: An early morning house fire on Monday killed a Lodi resident, authorities confirmed.
The fire broke out in the rear of the two-story Westminster Place home shortly before 6 a.m., apparently from a candle left burning, and quickly went to two alarms.
Four residents and two guests reportedly made it out safely. Two were treated for minor injuries, responders said.
A Wallington firefighter later found the body of 25-year-old Ezequiel Gonzalez, who family friends said lived there with his mother, her fiancé and his daughter.
A resident said she didn’t know why he “didn’t jump out the window” to the roof next door.

UPDATE: As news spread that the worst fears of his loved ones had come true, a 25-year-old tow truck driver killed in a Lodi house fire on Monday was remembered as a good, kind person.
Ezequiel Gonzalez was one of the real ones, said Jerry Whittaker of Hackensack, always down to help someone out and just a genuine soul. Always hurts to lose such a young friend, added trainer Brian Giraldo, who owns Rawfitness H.I.T Concepts in Lodi.
A candlelight vigil was planned for 6:30 p.m. Monday at the Thomas Jefferson Middle School on 1st Street.
