Correction: Due to a reporter s error, New Vision Fire and Rescue was inaccurately reported as the department originally in charge of the investigation.
Tragedy struck a Marion County family after a fire ravaged their home Easter morning, killing a man and three dogs.
John Bailey II, 55, of Marion, was pronounced dead at the scene, said April Short of the Marion County Coroner s Office. Short said an autopsy is still being conducted by the Lucas County Coroner to determine the cause of death.
According to an event report from the Marion County Sheriff s Office, the fire began early on Easter morning on the 4700 block of Seiter Road between Espyville Road North and Schmidt Road in Big Island Township. Fire officials and law enforcement believe the fire began in the living room and was caused by a heater. The house has since been deemed a total loss.

BETHEL TOWNSHIP Long time Bethel Township trustee and farmer Rod Hathaway, 83, died following a Sunday morning four-wheeler crash on Gilead Lake Road.
Hathaway was headed north on Gilead Lake Road just south of Schmidt Road when his enclosed four wheeled 2020 Polaris Ranger cross over the center line and off the road on the west side. It went through the ditch and into a grove of small trees where it turned on its side as it hit a tree. Hathaway was thrown from the ATV.
The Bronson Fire Department was called just after 10 a.m. and responded with LifeCare and Branch County Sheriff deputies. Emergency personnel administered CPR at the scene.
