Fundraiser held at Fayette High School for fire victims
FAYETTE, Mo. (KMIZ)
A fundraiser was held Friday in Fayette to help benefit those affected by an individualized supported living facility fire that killed three people on Jan. 27.
Springfield-based Hurts Donut used the back of Fayette High School for Friday’s fundraiser. The fundraiser saw strong support from the community.
Two of the deceased victims have been identified so far. Marcia Lyon, an employee as the facility, and Donnie Bittle were identified by their families as victims of the fire.
Lyon was a longtime mail carrier in the Thornbrook area. Residents from the area raised nearly $7,000 to help with funeral expenses for Lyons, according to Thornbrook HOA President Brooke Sydenstricker McCarty.
