Wagners lose almost everything in fire
by Karin L. Nauber



Tim and Margo Wagner of Hewitt lost their home to a fire on Monday, February 18. In addition to losing their home, they also lost their possessions.
The Wagners have two children, Tabitha and Tony, who also lost all of their toys and playthings.
At this time there are collection cans set up for the Wagner family at Grandma's Kountry Kitchen in Hewitt and at two businesses in Bertha and one in Verndale.
Margo and the children have received enough clothing for the time being, but Tim is still in need of pants size 36x32 or 38x32 and shirts in a size large or extra large.
They are also in need of storage space.
The family has been staying with Margo's parents, Bill and Gloria Nokes, in Bertha for the time being, but according to Margo's sister, Millisa Bristlin, they are hoping to rebuild their home and life in Hewitt.
A benefit is being planned at this time to help the Wagners rebuild their lives.
"They have a lot of work ahead of them," said sister Millisa, who also gave a special thanks to everyone who has been able to help her sister and family.
Watch for more information in an upcoming issue.
