That's very sad to hear! Recently there was a simmilar event near where I live. There was a big fire that badly damaged many historical buildings in downtown Moose Jaw. Because of the fear that some of them might collapse, they had to knock some of them down and so will never know what the cause of the fire was. They've recently started a fund to restore/rebuild these buildings. Perhaps they will do the same thing in Cheyenne.
