We’re rebuilding together because we are Paradise and we are Paradise Strong.

Sticking together and rebuilding the town of Paradise, a strongly expressed at the town council meeting 5 days earlier on Tuesday, November 13th, was also expressed at the vigil. A sign at the vigil read: "We will rise from the ashes" followed by the hashtags: #buttecountystorng #paradisestrong

Earlier in the week, residents had spoken at the town council meeting, expressing their love for Paradise. One resident, in response to the question, "Do you still love Paradise", replied, “Of course. Paradise is not several thousand acres of charcoal. It’s about people. We have a certain spirit. I don’t think tonight is a good night for gripes. Maybe some of the buildings and roads you didn’t like. But the community is made up of people, not specific things.” Paradise Resident Evacuated Wildfire Victims Kept Vigil Sunday Night.
