JEFFERSON — Residents are grieving the loss of the Jefferson Town Hall to fire Monday night and sharing memories of the historic building. But there is also a deep appreciation for the efforts of firefighters who managed to save the town offices and prevent the fire from spreading to the nearby fire station.
“I am so saddened for the loss of our beautiful town hall but so proud of firefighters were able to save the other town buildings,” wrote Gayle McGibbon, on a Facebook page devoted to the town.
