GEORGETOWN, IN (WAVE) - A couple lived through two tragedies in the span of just a few months. Now, a southern Indiana family who was forced to live in a trailer finally has a new home to call their own.

Clifford Allen Woods, a Vietnam war veteran, his wife, Jerri, and their disabled children's home burned down on June 10.

Tragedy struck again on July 27, when Jerri's 86-year-old father, a World War II veteran, fell and accidentally shot and killed himself. The family had to live in a trailer near their home for months.
