Charles Spence, Woodland Hills Fire Depart.: "If you look around, a lot of these firefighters still have their white shirts on, some still have ties on, pagers went off when they were in church and they responded here as quick as they could."

The fire was so big, other fire agencies were called in to help. Damage estimates for the home is up to 300-thousand dollars.

Investigators are still working on what caused the fire, but say it likely started in the garage.

The family has received several offers from neighbors for a place to stay and clothing.
