50 Year Family Business Goes Up in Flames

Donation protected
Over 50 years of family history went up in flames when a tragic fire consumed Melvin "Bubba" Traylor's longtime printing business. The family was looking forward to retiring soon, but without insurance on the now uninhabitable building, those dreams have been dashed.

Bubba and his family need help from the community to cover the basic costs of having the charred remains of the building demolished and hauled away. Jake Perry of One Young Man and A Tractor estimates this will cost around $8,000.

For over half a century, the Traylor family poured their lives into this business. Now Bubba is left picking up the pieces and can't do it alone. Please consider donating whatever you can to help Bubba move forward after this devastating loss. The funds will go directly towards the demolition and removal of the burned building so Bubba and his family can start rebuilding their life. No amount is too small. Thank you for supporting a community pillar in their time of need.

All donations go directly to the Traylor Family.
