Owner Bill Gomez says one silver lining throughout this disaster has been the support and kindness of small town Iowans in Stuart and the surrounding area. “There’s been a lot of support and friends glad that we’re rebuilding. Some people wouldn’t rebuild and would take the insurance money and leave town, but I want to rebuild and stay in Stuart.”
He adds that during the rebuilding of the barn, he plans to hold sales in a temporary tent at the location, but needs to get the idea cleared by his insurance company before it’s certain.
Raccoon Valley Radio will bring you more information as it becomes official.
