Lytton Wild Fire

[Mr--Huet]

Hi everyone, I'm a long time reader on these forums and post from time to time.  My name is Justin and I live on Vancouver island.  About 8+ years ago I as a foreman hired an 18 year old kid named Nikiah to work on my crew, my first find actually.  He was with me for about a year until his wife was about to give birth to their first daughter, so he moved back to the mainland in Lytton to be close to family.  He's the hardest and smartest worker I've ever had, real bright guy, super friendly and caring.  Real amazing young man, broke my heart a little when he left lol.  He now helps run the family farm near Lytton which is called Stein Mountain Organics.  This kid is a trooper, I really can't go on too much as to his character and work ethic (if he played hockey the habs would want to clone him into an entire starting line-up). Nikiah, his wife, and his two children were away from home when the fire torched Lytton to the ground (which in itself may have been safer, being somewhere else) so they had no time to save anything and lost it all, like everything...  

 

So this is the go fund me page started by a close family friend of Nikiah Coghlan.  https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-nikiah-and-cleanns?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=p_cp+share-sheet

Check it out and if you feel like donating it would be much appreciated.  I've never plugged something like this before but felt like I needed to do something because if someone deserves a hand up after a disaster it's definitely Nikiah and his family!   

Thanks for your time and consideration
