Friday, 520 Boston Post Road, a home the Adams family was renting, burned down, killing two of the family’s dogs. The fire destroyed everything inside the home, and the Adams family had no renter’s insurance.

The fire has displaced Jen Adams, her husband, their children and at least one grandchild. Several people have written comments on Waterford Patch and Waterford Patch’s Facebook page asking how to help, and the town reacted by opening up the Youth Services Bureau Sunday to accept donations for the family.
