Members of the Comanche Volunteer Fire Department responded early Wednesday morning to a house fire knowing that it belonged to one of their fellow firefighters.

According to information on the Comanche Volunteer Fire Department Facebook page, firemen received a transmission from one of their own that his house was on fire.  “I’m sure everyone like myself had a sinking feeling knowing that a page to service was coming, and where we were going.  Thankfully, he and his family were able to evacuate the house safely.”

Randy Arnold, wife Christina and two children were able to escape the burning home but lost everything.

A Go Fund Me page for the family has already been established if you would like to donate money.

They are also in need of clothing which can be dropped off at Sorrells Farms, 409 East Central in Comanche.

The clothing sizes are as follows:

Boy – Size 7 clothes, size 2 shoe
Girl – Size 10 clothes, size 4 shoe
Woman – XL shirt, 18 jean, size 10 shoe
Man – L shirt, 36/34 pants
