Helping a family burned out of their home in Roslindale

Christine Storti has set up a GoFundMe page to help the Anacacis family, whose home on Cedrus Avenue in Roslindale caught fire on Saturday.

Storti writes why she wanted to help a family she didn't know before the fire:

Marguerite, her sister Jeanette, Marguerite's caretaker, Marguerite's young nephew and another female resident came away with their lives. The three women carried Marguerite, who has Alzheimer's, out of the burning house before the fire department arrived.

I happened to pass by walking my dog that morning, and witnessing the women save Marguerite moved me deeply.
