Quick Summary

When a West Jordan family lost everything in a devastating fire, their story became about more than loss. It’s about love, resilience and the power of community. Watch how neighbors and friends came together to help the Dalton-Caseys rebuild.

When a November fire destroyed the Dalton-Casey family’s West Jordan home, it wiped out years of memories and left seven people without a place to call home. Known for their generosity and for always opening their doors for others, the loss hit hard.

Melinda Dalton-Casey, a mother of five and lifelong caregiver, has spent over 30 years supporting people with disabilities. Her wife, Jennifer, shared how Melinda also "provides dinners for those in need, for those just looking for a hot meal," even while raising five kids on the autism spectrum.

This holiday season, Mountain America teamed up with the FOX 13 Dream Team to deliver blankets, gifts and essentials—a reminder that they’re not alone. The road ahead is long, but with love, resilience and community support, the Dalton-Casey family is rebuilding together.
