I know that bushfires can be dangerous, having had to dodge a few in my lifetime with no real threat to my life. Nothing however could have prepared me for the scenes of devastation caused by the Victorian bushfires. Watching them from the other side of the country, I could nearly feel the helplessness of the victims, those who lost everything to the raging flames, some even their lives.
Back when they were showing pics of some of the 173 victims who lost their lives, I noticed at least one Asian. Anyway I just did a bit more searching on the web and found two AA victims. They were not the pics of the Asians I saw. Not all names of victims have been released btw as it depends on what the family wants.
"THREE young people who died in a Yarra Glen inferno tried to ring relatives to tell them they loved them just before they died.
Melanee Hermocilla, 23, her boyfriend Greg Lloyd, 22 and her brother Jaeson Hermocilla, 21, were house-sitting in Yarra Glen on Saturday when Victoria's worst fires struck. "
RIP to ALL the victims.
