Tragedy Strikes . . .

Tragedy struck our tiny town tonight in the form of a fire in Bill and Doris Broad's house on Broad St.

Thankfully, Bill got out of the house alright - I believe that he was taken to the hospital for observation. Doris wasn't home at the time, and arrived a few minutes after the fire department.

A special "Thank You" to the brave men (and women) of the Tatamy, Forks and Palmer Fire Departments, SGT Phil Cohen and the entire Tatamy Police Department, and Suburban EMS for a job well done.

As I get more information, I'll pop a note here. In the meantime, please keep Bill, Doris and the rest of the Broad family in your thoughts and prayers. They'll need them! Thanks!
