The farm was originally purchased by Towne’s grandfather in the 1920’s and was operated as a dairy farm. The home and attached barn were completely destroyed, being reduced to charred rubble.
Fire investigators confirmed the fire was started when a steer sparked the flames which quickly spread through the dry wood structure within minutes completely engulfing the barn and spreading into the house.
