00:00Weeks away from retirement, the patriarch of a Williamsville family will have to find a way to rebuild his lifelong home instead of relaxing in it.
00:11This is a fire erupted on the upper level of his two-story concrete house located along Puran Street around 10 a.m.
00:19Of the 10 people who live here, six were at home, three women and all three children, ages 5, 6 and 9 years old.
00:29The fire broke out upstairs while everyone was downstairs at the time.
00:50She says there are only bedrooms upstairs, no kitchen or anything she could think of that could start a fire.
00:58I'm trying to start a ball. So I say, okay, we start to run out. We start to pick up like this couch and we see the school side burning.
01:08That's how we have boom. That was all we hear.
01:10Mrs. Ali says her 53-year-old mother is a cancer patient who after the fire fell ill and had to be taken away by ambulance.
01:20Meanwhile, she says despite a quick response by officers of the Monrepo fire station, they lost everything.
01:27If anybody willing to help us and we'll look at our situation, we lost our life, we come light up.
01:33We lost everything, every, everything, every single thing.
01:37My father was not going to retire.
01:41On the 25th of December will be his last day.
01:43Now look, he lost his whole time to stay home and enjoy life.
01:47You have to build your house back again from scratch.
