As a raging wildfire approached Cherry Valley, California, neighbors united to help each other evacuate, along with their horses and other animals. Most escaped without injury or loss, but others weren’t so lucky.
Won Kyoung Lee and Myung Ok Lee had just retired and moved from Columbia, South Carolina, to Southern California to enjoy their golden years. They spent their life savings on a 3,400-square-foot home on Avenida Miravilla in Cherry Valley.
