The Dahlheimers decided it was time to get rid of the abandoned buildings on their farm, and St. Michael, Albertville and Monticello fire departments conducted fire training before the burn.
Memories of the Dahlheimer farm stayed alive as the house on the farm burned to the ground as planned Saturday. Neighbors and friends of the Dahlheimer family attended, and firefighters from St. Michael, Albertville and Monticello Fire Departments surrounded the house for hours, conducting training drills before letting the house burn. Owners of the farm, Merle and Laverne Dahlheimer, decided it was time to burn the abandoned house, barn and sheds on the property. Merle was raised on the farm since he was an infant in 1926, and he and his wife raised eight children there, who in turn raised their own children on the farm. Carol Eicher, Merle and Laverne's daughter, sat with her relatives to watch the burn. As she watched the drills of the …
