Palisades Dolphin Strong

Randy Stoklos, professional volleyball player and resident of Castellemmare Hill in the Palisades, used a bucket and his own jacuzzi water to put out fires on neighbor's homes.

He also stayed through the fire, and walked from home to home in the neighborhood using garden hoses to put out fires.

Thank you, Randy, for your extreme bravery!

Nicole Espinosa, here. This is my first hand account of escaping the Palisades fire on my motorcycle on January 7, 2025.

I feel it important to honor those who have lost everything, as we ban together as an empowered community to rise into something even greater.
