More horrid are the details. Wife and mother wheelchair bound and fully 
aware dies when her husband and son are unable to get her out of the home. 
Father and son are both in the hospital with burns and smoke inhalation.
 
This house was a wooden structure about 30 years old, equipped with smoke 
alarms and built to code (of the day).
 
WRT the second home everyone got out but it too is a complete loss and is 
also going to be torn down. Several other homes with burned cedar shake 
roofs also damaged but to a much lesser degree.
 
This has me re-thinking the fire safety of my own home and family.
