A heart-wrenching house fire in White Bear Lake, Minnesota, has left a family and community in mourning after Jessi Pierce, 37, and her three children were killed in the blaze.
Emergency crews responded to the fire in the early hours of March 21 and found the home engulfed in flames, the White Bear Fire Department said. Pierce was later identified as the victim along with her three children, Hudson, Cayden, and Avery.
Jessi Pierce is survived by her husband, Mike Pierce. The two were parents to their three children, Hudson, Cayden, and Avery. The family also had a dog that passed away alongside Pierce and her three children in the fire.
The Minnesota Wild further pays tribute to Pierce and said in a statement, “Jessi was a kind, compassionate person who cared deeply about her family and those around her.”
The cause of the fire is still being investigated. The investigation is being led by the Minnesota State Fire Marshal's Office.
