Family members told News4JAX the mother’s name Lesley Moore.
The Hilliard community is grieving the loss of a mother and two young children who died after their home caught fire early Thursday morning.– The Hilliard community is grieving the loss of a mother and two young children who died after their home caught fire early Thursday morning.
Along with grief and sadness, one family member told News4JAX he also feels confused. He wants the same answers that the state fire marshal’s office is digging for — what caused the fire in the double-wide trailer and why wasn’t this family able to escape it?“The whole trailer’s on fire now and I’m not in...And her truck is still there and they must have been in and I don’t know, I don’t know,” the caller said.“Yes, but it’s too late,” the neighbor responded.
“We didn’t know at first if anyone was inside the structure but later determined we did find three bodies,” Nassau County Sheriff Bill Leeper said.“I don’t understand it, I’m lost, I’m hurt,” Tanner said. “Something’s not right. You don’t sleep through all that. One of them is going to wake up. I want to know why they didn’t wake up.”Accounts from neighbors described a loud “boom” sound before the fire and the 911 calls point to a possible explosion of some kind.
“Nassau County Sheriff’s Office deputies and Nassau County Fire Department responded. When they arrived, the structure was fully ablaze and they tried to put the fire out, but it was totally destroyed,” Leeper said. “The structure is totally destroyed all the way down to the beams. There’s really nothing left.”
