“AARP Massachusetts is deeply saddened by the tragic fire at the Gabriel House Assisted Living Residence in Fall River, which claimed the lives of nine cherished residents and injured many others. Our hearts go out to the families, friends, and caregivers who are grieving this profound loss.
We are grateful to the first responders whose swift and selfless actions saved lives and brought comfort in the midst of chaos.
This tragedy is a reminder of the need to keep older adults safe, supported, and treated with dignity. As we mourn, AARP stands with the Fall River community and remains committed to protecting the well-being of older Americans.”
