UPDATE ON Mary Hosmer ..
Mary is being released from the hospital next Tuesday, the 30th.. she will have a couple months of rehab to do. But its going to be done from home...
IF YOU REMEMBER.....
Multiple crews responded to a house fire in
Ridgway Wednesday morning, [February 3, 2021], that left two people injured.
Crews were called around 2:50 a.m. to a two-story home on Montmorenci Road.
Two people were able to get out of the home but had unknown severity of injuries.
Both were taken to the local hospital as at least three crews continued to battle the
blaze.
Ms. Mary Hosmer, a member of the Rolf Beagle Club, Johnsonburg, PA,
lost everything from the blaze that destroyed her home. Three of Mary’s beloved
beagles were lost in the fire. Mary was life flighted to a Pittsburgh hospital for
treatment of 3rd degree burns. Mary’s brother escaped the blaze with unknown
injuries. As of this report, Mary remains in the hospital on a ventilator while
undergoing skin grafts.
Mary Hosmer, a native of Michigan Upper Peninsula, is a retired biologist
from the Allegheny National Forest, a devoted beagler, a very active member of
the RGS/UBH St. Marys, PA Chapter of the Ruffed Grouse Society, QDMA
(Quality Deer Management Association), Big Woods Hare Hunters of the

benefit of not only the land she loves but also for the hunting community. Mary
