www.kpho.com/story/22724064/wildfire-breaks-out-near-yarnell-azThis is so sad. It is such a different area. I've been through Yarnell a couple of times. Peeples Valley is beautiful, I hope they can keep the fire from moving. And it was very windy here in Phoenix - so I bet it was way windy up there. That wind whips off that mountain and down into that area on a calm day. I can't imagine how bad it was up there.

 My dad was a firefighter, so stories like this make me very sad.

This is heartbreaking. Thoughts and prayers to all of the families, the 19 who were lost and those still fighting the fires. Summerfun --  . I know this is a difficult time for you as well. Prayerfully, your dad and his crew stay safe. |

Thanks Sapphire  I wish peace and comfort to those who lost loved ones, I also hope for rain and cooler temps so these fires can die down. My Dad said one of his crew knows these guys and is really having a hard time  |

Heartbreaking. Prayers for all the families today. summerfun - hope your dad stays safe. This reminds me, in a horrible way, of the Mann Gulch fire. |

Always prayers and love for those who fight the fiery terror the rest of us flee. The hardest thought for me is the unborn children (several of the firefighters' wives are pregnant) who will never know their dad IRL.
