Julius Goff
Julius Goff, a resident of Vogel Flats in Big Tujunga Canyon for seven years, stands amid the remains of his home, which was destroyed in the Station fire. He and another resident were criticized by Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger and other authorities for thinking they could ride out the blaze by jumping into a hot tub. Goff, a 50-year-old single father who suffered severe burns, says he did not ignore a mandatory evacuation order -- he stayed behind to warn 10 neighbors who did not receive the order. By the time he got to his own home, to collect a roommate, the fire had surrounded them.
