Firefighters arrived within 2-minutes and quickly extinguished the fire that was spreading through the roof area.  In all, three fire engines, two water tenders, one attack unit and two chief officers responded.  The fire was declared under control within 16-minutes of dispatch.  Fire damage was contained to the dining room area ceiling, although there was moderate smoke damage throughout the home.  Golden Valley Fire Marshal Randy Osborn remained on scene to conduct the final investigation and assist the homeowners with temporary housing needs.
