Family loses everything The community is coming together to support the Langley family involved in last week’s attempted murder and arson. Already $5,000 has been raised to help the mother and her two children rebuild their lives, after escaping from the attack and fire, allegedly set by the estranged husband

and father in their Willoughby home. A Go Fund Me account has been set up by coworkers and friends who say the family is “now safe and recovering after this horrible ordeal,” friend Hailey McShane said. They lost everything in the fire, including mementos, clothing, furniture and will struggle

financially. A trust account (#728582) has been started at Envision Financial in Langley City. A trust fund has also been set up at the Langley CIBC branch 720 (#4686632). The Langley Bottle Depot will be taking donations, too.
