My family grew up there, and this is where my relatives reside and some are now found at Holy Trinity Cemetery their final resting place.<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/miserybay.usanethosting.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/gallery\/13sept\/fowler1.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"image\" class=\"aligncenter size-full\" \/><br \/>\nI arrived at the Lanes and was amazed and happy that I did not see much outside devastation.<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/miserybay.usanethosting.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/gallery\/13sept\/fowler2.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"image\" class=\"aligncenter size-full\" \/><br \/>\nThe inside of the building was where the fire had destroyed. This is a devastation to Fowler as it only has a population of 1208. However, the biggest devastation is for the new owners that have only owned the Lanes for a year or less.<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/miserybay.usanethosting.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/gallery\/13sept\/fowler4.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"image\" class=\"aligncenter size-full\" \/><br \/>\nThe Village residents are behind them 100% and hope that they will be able to reopen at some point down the road.<br \/>\nFowler was founded in 1857 and is and always has been a close knit town as most small towns are. I feel this is the kind of town that all towns should be.<br \/>\nI was told that the fire was started by a lightening strike from a storm that had gone through that night.<br \/>\nI will always have my family memories, and I still keep in touch with the friends I made while in high school.<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/miserybay.usanethosting.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/gallery\/13sept\/fowler3.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"image\" class=\"aligncenter size-full\" \/><br \/>\nIt was now time for some cookies, so I stopped at Quality Dairy to once again get something for the road . . . cookies!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>by Maralyn Fink<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-36837","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-features"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/stjindy.com\/archive1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/36837","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/stjindy.com\/archive1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/stjindy.com\/archive1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stjindy.com\/archive1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stjindy.com\/archive1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=36837"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/stjindy.com\/archive1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/36837\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/stjindy.com\/archive1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=36837"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stjindy.com\/archive1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=36837"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stjindy.com\/archive1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=36837"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
