People who lived in a senior care facility that burned down in Dallas last week thought they had until Friday to move out of their hotels and find a new place to live.
Catholic Charities is helping the displaced residents, and they said there are about 35 people still without a home.
A 5-alarm fire in Far East Dallas displaced more than five dozen people at the Serenity Apartments near John West Road and Buckner Boulevard.Many of the residents were taken to nearby hotels while they look for another place to live. "We have been really overwhelmed by the number of people who've reached out and asked how they can help," said Ben Friedman, spokesman for Elevation Financial Group, which owns the apartment complex. "And people have offered financial contributions, people have offered clothing, people have offered food."Others are now with family members.
