Mary propst passes away

It is with a heavy heart that the news was posted that we lost our beloved friend/fellow beagler Mary Propst on 1/14/26. God and the angels saw you were tired and a cure was not meant to be; so they wrapped their loving arms around you and brought you home with love and peace. Once again, it was proven that they only take the best. Our thoughts and prayers are with her dearly beloved husband Bruce, family and friends to get everything they need to get through this very difficult time.

Mary and Bruce ran their beagles under the kennel name Pro-Line and they were definitely a force to reckon with. They finished many field champions and belonged to Union Beagle Club in Pennsylvania. They supported the federations for many years and it was always great to see them not only at the Mid Dixie but at all the others when they were able. They supported license and sanction trials and helped in every way possible. Mary always had a smile and was Secretary/Treasurer of the Northeastern for years. She did a great job and her dedication and hard work was greatly appreciated. She was a true treasure that will be missed beyond measure! She and Bruce were great competitors through the years and their sportsmanship was to be admired. They had friends wherever they went. We have so many cherished memories through the years whether in the field, banquets, dinners, picnics, beagle clubs, and working together to have a successful trial/event. You certainly left footprints in our hearts, which we will forever carry with us and hold onto til we all meet again. Thanks for being such a cherished friend and fellow beagler!

Part 1 of how I got into beagling.

I grew up in a small town in York County Pa by the name of Hellam Pa that was in a country setting my father always had a Basset Hound or a beagle that he used for hunting. When I was old was old enough, he would take me with him and that was my introduction of the hounds. When I was old enough to hunt by myself, I would come home from school grab a shotgun and a dog walk across the street to the fields and hunt pheasants and rabbits.

A friend of my father bought a beagle pup off a farmer near us by the name of Blessing later in life I would find out he was a Beagler. The pup turned out to be one of the best rabbit dogs I ever hunted with. Her name was Nellie she had an all-white face that was easy to see, but she was shot and killed by a hunter while chasing a rabbit that was not in our hunting party.

So, for several years I did go hunting as I joined the Marines and got married and started a family. My work took me to many places, and I ended up in Hermitage Pa. I heard of a Beagle Club in Sharpsville and went and watch some dogs and knew I wanted a beagle but at the time was living in an apartment and could not make it happen. I got a job offer in Hazleton Pa and moved there.

I saw an ad in the local newspaper for a beagle for sale that was started and running and I bought her name was T and L Molly, she was bought from Butch Erwin who went by the kennel name Ferrwood Beagles. Butch took me to Carbon Beagle Club where I became a member and would later become the President of that club. Molly was out of Del-Hart Ringwood and placed in several trials and that was when I got hooked. Molly was bred to Duck Creek Rambo who was owned by Danny Venn. I later sold her to Joe Brady, who ran her in two couple trials.
