Nancy Fite died on June 9, 2026, after a house fire that also claimed the family pets, Rosie and Bulldozer.
Richard Fite survived the initial fire with severe burns and fought for life for 24 hours before passing away.
Their family described Nancy and Richard as humble, loving people who cared deeply for others, volunteered, stayed involved in church, and treasured their children and grandchildren.
Danette Fite organized a memorial fundraiser from Cedar Rapids, Iowa, on June 11, 2026, to help the family with funeral expenses, hospital bills, estate costs, and the complete loss of the home and belongings.
The fundraiser had raised $2,050 of a $13,000 goal through 16 donations at the time of the post.
The family noted that the home had no homeowners insurance and Richard Fite had no life insurance.
Memorial service details, obituary information, and funeral arrangements will be announced later by family members.
