"It's kind of hard for a 58-year-old man to be crying," said Bear Chief from the driver's seat of his car. Bear Chief's two cats died in the fire. Bear Chief's home was quickly surrounded by fire and he had to drive through a wall of flames to get out. Bear Chief lost not only his home of 33 years but his beloved cats, Pumpkin and Oreo. "A part of me feels I should have died with my cats," said Bear Chief.
