Lucas Passmore and his wife lost their home in California wildfires just before his big movie premiere
His new film, “Love Hurts,” is set to premiere soon, but the wildfires have cast a shadow over this exciting moment. Lucas described the chaos, saying the winds were so strong they felt like tornadoes, sending embers flying everywhere.
The fire came out of nowhere, destroying their home and neighborhood. They barely had time to grab a few belongings and their three dogs before fleeing. The Eaton Fire has already burned over 14,000 acres and threatens thousands of homes.
When Lucas returned, he found only a few walls standing. Everything else was reduced to ash, including his brand-new boots. It’s heartbreaking.
For now, they’re staying with family 60 miles away, who have been incredibly supportive. A GoFundMe page has raised over $70,000 to help them rebuild, and Lucas is grateful for the kindness from strangers.
He plans to pay it forward, inspired by the compassion he’s received during this tough time. It’s a reminder of the good in people, even in the face of tragedy.
