CONNOQUENESSING TWP -- Bud Marra said he is overwhelmed by the support and help he has received since he lost everything he owned in a Jan. 12 fire that destroyed his home.

His home in the Woodland Meadows Mobile Home Park on Double Road was a total loss and the whereabouts of his three cats are unknown as a result of the fire.

“I woke up at 6:30 a.m. I opened my eyes, I was surrounded by fire. The brightness of the flames woke me up,” Marra said.

After running outside screaming for help, he said he went back inside the home three or four times looking for his cats before the smoke he was inhaling caused him to collapse in a hallway.
