Betty Ecret is slowly snapping out of a fog after relatives broke the news Sunday that her house was destroyed by the Mulberry Fire that raged near the Santa Rita foothills. The 78-year-old monitor for Corona Foothills Middle School in the Vail Unified School District was in Indiana to attend her great-grandson’s First Holy Communion. “I couldn’t comprehend it,” recalled Ecret in an email interview. “I felt like I was in a dream.” The fire that broke out Saturday burned 1,755 acres — destroying three houses and a shed.
