His apartment was gutted in the blaze so Red Cross volunteers are helping him out with somewhere to stay for now and with meals, clothing and other essential items.
The man’s daughter is trying to find him an apartment in a senior’s complex.
The fire forced six people from their apartments and two other tenants were treated because of this blaze.
