Family Loses Everything In Bloomfield House Fire

Last updated on Monday, September 19, 2016

(BLOOMFIELD) - A Bloomfield family lost everything in a house fire on Wednesday.

Kelly Slaven of the Greene County Daily World reports that Robert, 'Bob' and Jonell Harper had their home completely destroyed by what appears to be an electrical fire.

The Harper's were not injured, but did lose their dog and most of their belongings in the fire.

Bob Harper was mowing the lawn when the fire began around 3 p.m.

The Richland Fire Department responded and worked for hours to save the home and the family's belongings.

The only thing saved from the blaze was a few boxes of photos, a jewelry box and a few clothes.

A Gofundme account and an account at Main Source bank in Bloomfield has been set up for the family.

No-monetary donations are being accepted for the family at Little Angels Daycare in Bloomfield across from Bradfield Landscaping.
