CLEVELAND - A Mogadore family of a young soldier is now planning for a funeral. Close friends said a devastating fire, that broke out at an apartment complex just outside of Fort Hood in Texas, killed 19-year-old Seth Soulsby.

The young soldier's father told NewsChannel5 his son had been stationed at Fort Hood for about one year. He received word of his son's death Friday. Now, not just family but close friends of the young soldier are also mourning, still in disbelief.

"To find out he passed in a fire...that's what really makes it worse," said Chris Harris. He and his wife, Penny, said his house was home away from home for Soulsby, who was close friends with their daughters. Others who knew Soulsby described a similar loving relationship.

The blaze reportedly killed three people early Friday morning and left another 30 without a home.
