Fire at Yarusso's

There was the fire at Bill Godwin’s hardware store about ten years back and the fire at Payne Avenue Liquors about fourteen months ago and now Yarusso’s has been the victim of a fire.  It probably should not be extremely shocking that older buildings sometimes have fires, but we still take it as a bit of a surprise, especially when it happens some place we have been before.

[It might be some kind of psychological thing, I suppose, we at least subconsciously think, “I could have been there.”]

Bill Godwin rebuilt and reopened his store and Payne Avenue Liquors has begun its reconstruction plans.  Early reports and the business's web site say that the restaurant will oen again.  It will take several weeks or months, but CCM wishes them well and hopes that they don’t get caught up in the red tape and snafus which often happen when an older building has to be brought up to newer codes.
