Horrrible thing to happen right before Christmas holidays, prayers out to Dennis and his family. Looks like everyone got out of the house OK.

Yikes! Knowing that no one was injured, I will now say glad that his Stude's and other collectables didn't get damaged.

A terrible thing to happen to anyone, and especially to such a first-class guy and his family.

That's bad I had my porch catch fire this time last year, I was upset I can't imagine what Dennis is feeling. Glad nobody got hurt.

Very sad indeed, especially at this time of year. Memories lost yes, but thankfully no one was hurt.

Good thing they reported that all of his cars and bikes are in the detached garage. If he's smart, they'll all be moved real quick before the thieves move in. A quick look at the satellite pics show it's a pretty isolated neighborhood. Gotta love technology.

Wow, how terrible... anytime of the year for anyone, but even worse here at Christmas. He was here back in 2006 for a show at one of our local cruise-ins... a really nice guy. Glad they all got out safely.

Alot of house fires this time of year... bad heaters, faulty wiring, overloaded extention cords, clogged chimneys, dried out Christmas trees, etc... so many things that can spark a blaze... looks like the chimney was in the back where it looks like the fire started... wondering if it was that or some sort of Christmas light shorted out.

Well, thankfully they are OK, but still bad to lose your home.
