November 14, 2010 received note from 505 Firefly, talking about daughter, Sarah M. (Ahart) Hogan: "So sad, she died of burns she received trying to save her mother from burning to death. Both died. The fire that killed her mother was so intense that a rocking chair in the room was burned to ashes and a hole was burned in the floor under it. I can't imagine what they were doing to fabric in the old days to make it burn so badly but they said it was that her clothes caught fire. It seems like this lady was a bit of a hero, to try so hard to save her mother."
