A powerful storm robbed a family of their home two years ago, and last Thursday, the community was devastated to find the same family to be victims of a house fire. Rollie and Cherie Ellis lost their home in the blaze, and the home next door of Vince Eide was also destroyed. Heartbroken, the community has banded together to help provide for the two families. There are currently several ways to donate: First Bank & Trust has two accounts (Zion Lutheran Church for the Benefit of the Ellis Family and Zion Lutheran Church for the Benefit of the Eide Family); Target.com Registry (Cherie Rollie Kodie & Maggie's housewarming registry) Cherie's Kitchen (Pampered Chef with both a registry and the ability to order and allow Cherie to order several items for either free or reduced price), and you can mail gift cards for Ace Hardware and Campbell's Supply to V Eide at PO Box 135 Garretson, SD 57030.

We also feature the 2017 Garretson High School Graduates! Congratulations! See all of our graduates on Pages 19-20.

The insurance legals run this month. Says South Dakota Newspaper Association Executive Director Dave Bordewyk, "These public notices are important to ensuring South Dakotans have information about an important segment of the financial industry doing business in our state. Transparency and disclosure are important to South Dakotans and these public notices help fulfill that expectation." Thank you to the SDNA for helping provide that service!
