SANDS TWP -- Tim and Sheri Fox lost their Sands Township home in an early morning fire this past Sunday.

After a long three days, Tim returned to work at Superior Hills.

Superior Hills School and local community members have all been lending a helping hand to the family who lost nearly everything in the blaze.

Students wrote cards to the Fox family, and people have been dropping clothes and kitchen items off at the school.

Tim says the week has been hard not only because they've lost their home, but he has missed teaching, something that brightens his day.

The Fox family would also like to say thank you to all those who have helped.

"I want to say that we're fortunate to live in a community like this, and through the tragedy and the hard times, there are a lot of good things and one of them is to know that we live in a place where people care so much," said Tim.

If you would like to help the Fox family, visit the Web site called Fox Family Support.  It lists all their needs.
