GUILFORD COUNTY, N.C. — Just one day after burying their son, an elderly couple lost their home in a fire Friday morning.
The Alamance Community Fire Department says crews got the calls around 9:30 a.m. to a home on the 2600 block of Alamance Church Road. Fire investigators determined it was the result of a wood stove.
"I was just sitting there drinking my coffee, smoking a cigarette," said Frank McCraw, "Somebody knocked on the door and said your house is on fire."
