Funeral services are pending for a Powell woman who died in Montana earlier this week.  Authorities say 58-year-old Pauline Siegel died after getting trapped in a brush fire in a rural part of the state.  Investigators say a small crossover vehicle Siegel and others were using to travel over a grass-covered road sparked several fires, including the one that killed her.
