To be more specific, Janet had an old under counter refrigerator over heat, which started the blaze. She was not at home at the time. Neighbors heard the dogs barking, and kicked in the front door, rescuing all three, they are now at foster homes. The cat hid on the third floor and succombed to the smoke. Janet is living in a motel, paid for by insurance, until things can be sorted out. Insuranse investigations always seem to be put on hold over holiday weekends. Dennis has not been living in the house recently, so he is also safe.

I just spoke with Janet who asked me to post and thank everybody who has donated or helped out in any way. She has found a really nice apartment where she'll live over the next months while her house is being repaired. She says she plans to come to the winter meeting in January.
