The family of a resident at the Gabriel House assisted living facility has retained a law firm to investigate the circumstances leading up to the deadly Sunday fire that killed nine people and left dozens injured.

Support continues to pour in for the victims, survivors, and first responders affected by the Gabriel House fire in Fall River.

FALL RIVER — The nine residents killed in a fire here at Gabriel House, an assisted living residence, are being remembered as fonts of knowledge and symbols of longevity.

There’s no doubt in my mind that that fire was destined to kill 50-plus people,” Fall River Fire Chief Jeffrey Bacon said Wednesday.

The Bristol District Attorney's Office corrected the report of the 10th victim's death in the Gabriel House fire on Friday, citing a miscommunication.
