LAGUNA NIGUEL, Calif. — Lynn Morey stood in disbelief Thursday outside the home that she and her husband have rented for nearly a decade.
The once luxurious five-bedroom house with sweeping views of the Saddleback Mountains had been completely engulfed by flames a day earlier. The frame was still standing, but the charred rubble inside signaled that everything had been lost.
“Well, almost everything,” the 56-year-old said as she held up a silver frame that contained a photograph from her wedding. The photograph was taken as Morey and her husband, Keith, stood on a hillside overlooking the ocean in 2017 and exchanged vows.
