Glatter also recalled the experience of returning to the remnants of her home.

Amidst the rubble and debris there was a tree still standing and it was filled with bright yellow flowers.

In that moment, something cracked open for me… My heart goes out to all those who have lost so much and to those in danger.
2025 was to be our year of resurgence.
But what gives me hope is you.
She added: I have been so fortunate to call Pacific Palisades home.
It is where I raised my son and have been living for over 20 years.
