KQED in San Franciso was the first to report that the home of Charles Schulz, the creator of the “Peanuts” comic strip, was completely destroyed in the Northern California wildfires. this week, his son Monte Schulz said.

His son, Monte Schulz, said that Schulz’s widow Jean, 78, was evacuated from their split-level home in Santa Rosa on Monday shortly before the fire reduced it to rubble.

She is safe and staying with family, he said.

“The things that they lost in there are irreplaceable,” said Monte Schulz. “It’s not just the memorabilia. It’s that life that my stepmother had with him. It’s completely gone.”
Another sad loss in these horrific wild fires.
