    (Wynne, AR) -- A community in Arkansas is trying to come to terms with an unspeakable loss.
    Two kids where killed over the weekend when a fire ripped through their mobile home.

    "They were sweet lovable kids they didn't even have their lives started yet," said family member Cara Bauder.

    Those close to the family say a space heater in the children's bedroom started the fire just before 8 Sunday morning.
    Emergency crews arrived within minutes but it was to late.

    Caitlyn Beashear, 2, and her brother, Cameron, 4, were found dead in the trailer's bathroom.

    The childrens' mother, Ashley Beashear, and her boyfriend, Brett Miller, were able to escape without injury.
