Fire destroys Ahwatukee family's home
Mike Daley was piloting a US Airways plane back from Honolulu to Phoenix. His wife, Alisa, was in Spokane, Wash., with two of their children — Alexandra, 12, and Kate, 4 — visiting her mother.
In the middle of the night, Alisa Daley got the phone call: Her Ahwatukee Foothills house had burned down. Mike Daley got the news when he landed.
Their daughter, Keira, 14, is still in Wisconsin at a remote fishing camp and doesn't know that the family's house and most of their belongings were reduced to rubble.
The others returned to find their house in ruins, the charred smell still hanging in the air. Neighbors called the Phoenix Fire Department at about 1:05 a.m. Tuesday.
***Some of you may remember the West FA who was killed in the helicopter crash a couple months ago.
She was Mike's ex.
Mother of his oldest daughter.
That poor girl has now lost all her cherished mementos of her mother.
