A West Virginia community is mourning three lives taken by a deadly fire.

As you come up the driveway along Route 259 in Hardy County, West Virginia, you can still see cars parked in front of a charred home.

The shattered glass and blackened walls paint a gruesome picture of Friday's fire.

Chief of the Mathias Fire Department, Craig Strauderman, was on the scene of the fire.

Strauderman says, "Arrived on scene to find a structure probably 50 percent involved with fire. The fire was venting from the roof at that time."

The bodies of Dennis and Allaina Taylor, along with a minor, were found inside the home.

Strauderman says, "During the course of the fire, we did locate three victims who perished in the fire."

While community members would not talk about the tragedy, Strauderman says it has been a tough weekend for the town.

"The whole community usually takes this kind of thing very rough. It's a pretty small community and everybody is pretty close," says Strauderman.

He says firefighters from Virginia and West Virginia are some of the most affected by the death of fellow firefighter, Dennis Taylor.

"The fire department is a close knit group. I mean, you pretty much become a family, as you experience things with each other," says Strauderman.

A West Virginia community is still left full of questions and grief, and fellow firefighters have left words of love and sorrow at the base of the Taylor's hill.

Officials with the fire and rescue squad say investigators have not ruled out foul play. Official word on the fire's cause is expected to be released in the next few days.
