The Eaton fire is burning much of Pasadena, Altadena, and parts of Glendale - areas all in northeast Los Angeles.
The Eaton fire is also responsible for all five deaths that have been reported.
"A lot of the family members who I've been able to contact are safe - but some of their houses have burned down. The cemetery where my mom and brother and a lot of family members are at is completely burned," said Norwood.
She says it's devastating to watch where she made all of her childhood memories burn on live TV.
"Just stay strong, and stay strong in your faith, because that's all that we have right now," she said.
At this time, no local first responders have announced aid to Los Angeles at this time.
