en When we got there, it was about 10 p.m. It was fully engulfed. A lot of family memories were tied up with the feed store, even though it was closed. My grandfather, Bill Pace, was in his 80s and would help my dad run the feed store so Dad could take care of the fertilizer end of the business.

en He helped with all the remodeling in all three of the stores. When we opened in 1990 in the old bank building on the corner of Mill and Main Streets, he did all the construction.
