The recent wildfires in California have resulted in tragic losses, with numerous victims identified. Among them are a father and his son, who could not evacuate in time, and an 82-year-old man found in his bed, having refused to leave his home of 50 years. Other victims include a great-grandmother, a heroic man who died holding a garden hose while defending his family home, and individuals who chose to stay back with their beloved pets. The toll of the fires has not only devastated families but also impacted historic communities, particularly in areas like Altadena. As the medical examiner works to identify more victims, the community grieves the loss of lives and the destruction of cherished memories.
