The owner of a home that was destroyed by fire on Hidden Trail is saying thanks to everyone who helped out.

The owner didn’t want to give his name, but he wanted to single out the work of the three fire departments that put out the blaze.

That includes Fire Chief Dave Pratt and the Kenora Fire and Emergency Services as well as volunteer fire fighters with the Longbow Lake Fire, and McKenzie-Clearwater Bay.

He also credits the work of the Constable Fuller of the OPP and help from the Red Cross.

The fire broke out last Wednesday night around 6:30.

He also thanks neighbors and the north of the by-pass community for their support and kinds words.
