Today, we\u2019re welcoming Deanna Jones back home. Northern California has been plagued with what seems like a new record breaking fire every year. So much of the national focus falls on these large and horrendous fires, and many of the, by comparison, smaller fires have been forgotten. The Clayton Fire ripped through Lower Lake and 175 homes were lost and many families displaced. Among those who lost their homes was Deanna Jones. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Deanna moved to Lake County in 1995, looking for work and a place to raise her family. As we arrived for the dedication, her green thumb had already been at work planting fruit trees and vegetable gardens. Jones said she was \u201c[Getting] back on my own dirt.\u201d Her perseverance and patience in the process made for teary eyes and big smiles. We invited representatives from all of the organizations who had a hand in getting her home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As HCRN and our building project have become more dedicated to this region of the country, we\u2019ve made some fantastic connections to other organizations. It\u2019s because of these partnerships that we\u2019ve been able to get as many people home as we have. Deanna Jones\u2019s is home due to a collaboration with Mennonite Disaster Service; Team Lake County, the Lake County long term recovery group; Hammers for Hope, who have brought access to additional funds for fire survivors; North Coast Opportunities; St. Vincent De Paul, who furnishes homes with their \u201cHouse in a Box\u201d program; The Lake Area Rotary Club Association; Catholic Chairities; Middletown Bible Church; and of course the volunteer force from Hope City.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At every home dedication, HCRN likes to give out a few small gifts as house warming presents. We bring a small cross, as a reminder of Who it is we serve, and Who made this house possible. We also bring a quilt, hand made by one of our church partners, and a nice little wall decoration. As a little piece of entertainment, we bring a copy of \u201cThe Peanuts\u201d movie signed by the Schulz family, who have been fantastic partners to HCRN and Hope City. The final thing presented to Deanna, is her house key. The excitement on her face was priceless.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We asked her to speak a little about her experiences in getting home. Jones said, \u201cI don\u2019t know what it is about Lake County, everyone just comes together for a goal. This community raised my children, it gave me work, it provided me with a life. My family lives across the United States. I tell them, there\u2019s no place like home.\u201d Jones\u2019s attitude is so amazing and positive. Her daughter lost her home in the same fire that took Deanna\u2019s, and Jone\u2019s son lost his home in the Camp Fire that tore through Paradise. Luckily, they all made it out safe, and Deanna got to go see her grandchild\u2019s high school graduation in Paradise, an extra special event for that community, and a moment of pride for Jones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kevin Cox, HCRN CEO and founder, closed out the dedication with the biggest praise for Jones. \u201c[Her] perseverance has been unbelievable, we\u2019re blessed to be a part of this.\u201d It\u2019s good to remember we get to do this every day. We get to bring people home and help restore their lives.
