A family in Corinth, north of Timpson, lost a home to fire on December 6, 2015. According to a report from the Timpson Volunteer Fire Department (TVFD), firemen were dispatched at 10:34am to the residence of Robbie and Jessica Holloway and upon arrival the majority of the brick house was engulfed in flames.
Garrison Volunteer Fire Department and Gary Volunteer Fire Department assisted at the scene, and firemen worked to extinguish the flames as well as preventing further spread.
It is believed the origin of the fire was the garage. Robbie Holloway was outside in the yard at the time and witnessed flames emitting from the garage. He went inside and got his family out of the house, and by that time the house was becoming fully involved. The firemen could see black smoke as they approached the house 12 miles away on U.S. Highway 84 and turning onto FM 1970 where the house was located.
Fire destroyed the home and what two rooms even remained burned during the night and the TVFD returned to the scene at 11:30 to extinguish those flames.
The Holloways, including three children, have lost everything in their home due to the fire and a gofundme account has been established in their name to help raise funds for the family. Anyone wishing to make a donation can go to the following address: https://www.gofundme.com/2qdr792c
Although the tragedy has had a great effect on this family, Robbie Holloway posted the following on his Facebook page showing just how much the human spirit can prevail when faced with such a struggle: "As u may no me and my family's house has burned with everything we own. With that being said I've been throwed a few curve balls in my life but never one like this. I set back and try to take it all in and wonder what to do next. And then I look at all the help people are doing like money, clothes etc and people just taking the time to say I'm sorry. And it brings back hope to me. And it makes me think so what if we don't have present or a big tree. We have all these people taking just a few seconds minutes or even hours to come our way just to see if we need something that's the best Christmas present ever. Unbelievable how all these people have impacted my life in such a way I cannot describe. Just want to say thanks to everyone for just being good people and thinking of me and my family. I hope u all have a great Christmas because in a weird way I've already had one. Thanks again."
