Fires across the Los Angeles area have killed at least 25 people. The Palisades and Eaton wildfires continue to burn in California today. Here are the latest updates.
Maya Richard-Craven describes herself as 'five generations Pasadena' because her family planted roots in the area roughly a century ago and has lived there ever since. Richard-Craven's relatives are involved to such an extent in local organizations, social clubs and volunteer groups, that, she said, taking a walk in nearby Altadena often means being waved down by someone who recognizes her mom.'This is a history that is deep,' Richard-Craven told CBS News.
Many of the families displaced by the Eaton Fire that erupted last week are people she knows personally. Her cousin's house was burned, as was her great-aunt's — where Richard-Craven herself also lived until recently.'About 30 people I know lost their homes,' she said.
