Great-grandma aches over family memories lost in house fire

Great-grandma aches over family memories lost in house fire MARQUETTE HEIGHTS Amid the blackened rubble, Judy Lane seeks a tiny pearl.

NW Illinois community mourns all-American firefighter who died after responding to call

Leo W. Werner, 67, was a captain in the Scales Mound Fire Protection District. He had responded to a medical call for service around 10 p.m. Wednesday, Dec. 9. Shortly after returning home, Werner suffered from an apparent heart attack, according to Scales Mound Fire chief Carl Winter. “He responded as a first responder,” Winter said. “Then, he was home about a half hour when (Werner’s family) called 911.” Lt. Jeff Williams, of the Scales Mound department, worked with Werner about 17 years. “If Hallmark could make a card showing an All-American family — that was Leo and the Werner family,” Williams said. “Leo grew up on a farm, played sports in high school, went straight into the military, and as soon as he got home, he joined his local volunteer fire department. He didn’t have to — he had already served his country.”
