Clearfield, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced the following schedule of maintenance activities in Potter County the week of August 31. PennDOT performs year-round maintenance in its mission to provide a safe, efficient transportation system, and the scope of work in Potter County for the coming week is as follows:
Route 6 between Route 44 in Sweden Township and the Potter-Tioga County line in Pike Township. Monday, August 31, through Friday, September 4. Flaggers in the roadway will provide traffic control during daylight hours and may deploy a pilot vehicle. When encountering a pilot vehicle with a “Pilot Car Follow Me” sign mounted on the rear and a revolving yellow light, drivers must remain behind it until it has left the roadway. Do not pass.
Most permanent pothole patching is completed in spring or summer when temperatures stay consistently above freezing. Manual patching consists of filling potholes with warm mix asphalt using a shovel. It is then leveled and compacted. Mechanized patching consists of milling paving notches, cleaning the surface, applying tack to all edges to act as a glue. A paver then places warm mix into the milled paving notches, and a roller compacts the material. If patching was not performed, the damaged road surface would deteriorate further, and PennDOT would need to completely rebuild the road or perform more costly corrective measures.
Representatives from the Johnsonburg Area Endowment Fund and this year’s grant recipient organizations gathered to celebrate $19,066 in grants awarded to six organizations serving the Johnsonburg community. Pictured from left are Scott Cherry, Rachel Kilhoffer, Al Maletto, Chris Kreckel, Kylie Maland, Barb Duffy, Kathy Herzing, Janice Carnovale, Tiffany Boschert, and Tony King.
The Elk County Community Foundation (ECCF) is pleased to announce that the Johnsonburg Area Endowment Fund has awarded $19,066 in grants to support local organizations and projects benefiting residents of the Johnsonburg area.
The Johnsonburg Area Endowment Fund was established in 2020 through the remaining assets from the sale of the Johnsonburg Community TV Company. Rather than allowing those assets to fade into history, they became the foundation of a permanent charitable fund dedicated to the Johnsonburg community. Today, the Fund provides grants to nonprofit organizations and community projects benefiting residents of the Johnsonburg Area School District.
Rural Health Funding: The Trump Administration recently announced a $35 million investment for the Rural Health Transformation Program to improve healthcare access for Pennsylvanians. Rural communities continue to face challenges when it comes to delivering healthcare services. The funding will be used to upgrade and modernize screening technology, to buy equipment to bring additional operating rooms online, and to expand accessible transportation options, helping our rural communities access the care they deserve. This investment was made available through the Working Families Tax Cuts Act, which provides $50 billion nationally over five years. I thank the Trump Administration for its continued support of our communities.

“For our firefighters to effectively do their jobs and protect public safety, we also need to protect them with appropriate equipment,” Causer said. “I was happy to work with Chief (Bryan) Phelps to secure this grant and ensure the department has the tools it needs to fulfill its mission.”
During a visit to the station on Thursday, Phelps and members of the department talked with Causer about the equipment purchased, including 13 full sets of firefighting gear – including pants, coats, boots, gloves and particulate hoods – as well as 12 thermal imaging cameras to assist with searching for lost or trapped persons, or to be used in hazardous materials situations.

Julie Lynn LeTrent, 70, of Keller, Texas, formerly of Bradford, Pennsylvania, passed away peacefully on August 9, 2026, in Grapevine, Texas, surrounded by the love of her family.
She was born on June 2, 1956, in Warren, Pennsylvania, the daughter of the late James W. LeTrent and Lois Jean Morey Van Houtte, who survives her.
Julie graduated from Bradford Area Schools in 1974 and, in 1984, earned a two-year associate degree in medical secretarial studies from Olean Business Institute.
Julie was a gentle, caring soul whose heart was always with her family. She found joy in life’s simple pleasures, garage sales, ceramics, embroidery and sewing, and she especially loved cooking for those she cared about. Her spaghetti and meatballs became a cherished family favorite, a dish that always meant home.
More than anything, Julie wanted to love and be loved by her family, and she gave that love freely and completely. She showed up for her grandchildren and great-grandchildren, again and again, through the everyday moments as much as the big ones, always ready with a phone call, a meal, or a helping hand whenever she was needed. Her kindness was quiet yet constant, and she had a special gift for making others feel seen, valued, and truly loved.
That same devotion carried her back to Bradford as often as she could manage. Julie cherished every trip home to Pennsylvania to visit her family, especially her mother, and those visits were among her greatest joys. Now, she returns to Bradford once more, laid to rest among the family and community she loved so dearly.
She is survived by her mother, Lois J. Van Houtte of Bradford, PA; her sister, Diane Van Houtte of Pittsburgh, PA; and her brother, James LeTrent (Angel) of Corry, PA; her children, Heather LeTrent of Lewisville, TX, Amy LeTrent of Bedford, TX, Michael Taft (Robyn) of Keller, TX, and Brian Taft (Gina) of Grand Prairie, TX; her six grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren; and many extended family members who loved her dearly.
She was preceded in death by her father, James W. LeTrent; her stepfather, Robert E. Van Houtte; her sister, Rebecca LeTrent Gould; and two beloved grandchildren, Shariece Martin and Jada Summer Gonzalez.
Julie’s family meant everything to her, and her love for them remains present in the lives she touched, and in every shared story, treasured recipe, and act of kindness inspired by her example.
A visitation will be held on Friday, August 28, 2026, from 6:00pm to 8:00 p.m. at Lucas Funeral Home, Grapevine, Texas.
Funeral service on Saturday, August 29, 2026, from 10:00am to 12:00 p.m., also at Lucas Funeral Home, Grapevine, Texas.
