A home west of Baptist Camp was destroyed by fire early Sunday.

An early Sunday morning fire destroyed a Houston man’s home.

Henry Power, who resides on Able Road, was able to escape the structure with only a pair of jeans and boots he was wearing. Firemen were unable to save it.

A veteran, Power lived near Simmons Baptist Camp. A granddaughter, Reanna Glover, said the American Red Cross met with him on Labor Day to offer help.

Persons who would like to assist him can contact Glover at 417-217-2465, find her on Facebook under “Reanna Glover” or email her at reannaglover@gmail.com.
