An early morning fire back on December 22 claimed the lives of Perry Buckhault and Leanna Redmond on Sycamore Road in Canoe, Ala. Buckhault was loading or lighting a wood-burning heater when he somehow set himself on fire. Buckhault’s wife was able to escape the fire with minor injuries.

RIP Sonya you died too young and prayers go out to the entire family. I know with everything they have been thru this is breaking them even more. May GOD comfort them and help them understand why. You were a great mother and wife and I know in my heart God recieved another angel to watch over us all.
