Anonymous said...: I heard this fire took the apartment and all the belongings of a Roanoke county volunteer firefighter. I think they said he ran with Cave Spring company 3. I'm sure they have something going on to help him out if anyone is interested. I;m not sure how to get in contact with them but last I heard they had a few city guys running as volunteers there.; 12:30 AM
