BELEN — Steven Martinez is focusing on getting better rather than his family’s belongings after he suffered second-degree burns in a house fire last week.

Martinez, 47, lived in the double-wide mobile home with his girlfriend of 22 years, Gloria Gurule, and their three children, Angel, 15, Gabriel, 12, and Leticia, 11, for about eight years before flames destroyed the structure on Thursday, Dec. 2.
