Mary Helton irons a piece of fabric for a cornice board Wednesday afternoon at Millie’s Drapery & Decorating’s location along Thompson Bridge Road. The move is temporary until insurance allows the store to rebuild back at its former Cleveland Highway location.
It’s still overwhelming for June Kinsey to think about all the community support she has received in the five-plus weeks since an Aug. 9 fire at Millie’s Drapery & Decorating. “They have absolutely rallied behind us,” said Kinsey, interior design consultant for the longtime Cleveland Highway business. She has worked at the store for 36 years.
