Thank you all, for all you did. You are all superheroes to me and my family. My son and his family, farm, horses, animals were evacuated. God bless you all.
Catches the tragedy and the community spirit that comes together in a small town like Colton in saving their area with the help of First Responders and local folks.
I used to live up there just around a mile north and east of Elwood, almost on the boundary of the national forest. We left there in the late 1970's. The gas crisis meant we couldn't afford to stay. My heart stayed there. I have always wondered if the house we built burned and hoped that it survived. Thank you Fire Fighters for your service. On September 5, 2024, I tried to find the old place on Google, and it is all overgrown. Maybe before I die, I'll get a car and come out there again one last time. I am sure that Les Dimic has passed on. The last I heard was the Seubert Brothers have a business in Estacada.
I want to thank all of you for all that you did to save a Community of people and the buildings. I do understand some lost all and we all know all was done that could be done. To the Colton Fire department there are no words that have ever been spoken that can say THANK YOU FOR ALL THAT YOU HAVE DONE. B safe and God Bless each and everyone of you for your hours of giving
Lowers my head-bless these people and those who have lost or been lost take them to you halls to rest their souls pour out the blessed and sacred water opon this place and please flow thy blessed healing into the earth to restore and prosper its return
@@Olya.Konell You did a terrific job! As a former resident of Colton who still has many family members living there, it was heart wrenching, and beautifully hopeful at the same time. Kudos!

This video did a great job showing what it was like out here. It was extremely emotional for me to watch but I'm glad I did.
Thanks for including my picture of the truck with the American flag, sitting in a burnt field.
You’re welcome! Thank you for the submissions!!
