Stories:
Story 1: Always a residence but the Fays had their art studio in the basement where they sold paintings and gave lessons. Another owner was a composer and made the garage into a music room.Story 2: Craig Lee Fuller, owner 1984-1986 is one of the finest songwriter/performers to come from this area. He founded a band in the early '70s called Pure Prairie League, which reunited several years ago and is still performing today with many of the original members. Amie is certainly their best-known song, which Mr. Fuller both wrote and sang. I believe he now lives in North Carolina with his family, and his son has recently been making appearances onstage with his dad! The guy was and is a major talent in the musical world. Information in January 2008 from John Maggard.
