Business: Sign America starting over after fire Regrets: If only he'd have taken backup with him - just one version of the files on a jump drive, tossed into the glove compartment or left at home, would have allowed him to restart with only the building and equipment losses... By Linda Waggener David Breeding is starting his Sign America business over, from scratch, after it was destroyed in the fire of October 23, 2018. The fire at 409 Burkesville Street, took the historic building remembered as the the Meadow Hill Inn, then Walker Florist before being home to Sign America. David said when he got the late-night call of a fire, he first worried the windows would blow out before it could be contained. Neither he nor the fire department expected it to get to the roof and encompass the whole building. The Adair County Fire Department came on scene at 11:30pmCT and 17 men fought the blazing building for four and a half hours before being directed that it would have to burn itself out. He was very thankful no one was hurt in the fire. He said the biggest hit to his service after building and equipment was the total loss of all his design files from hundreds of signs created over the 15 year life of Sign America in Columbia. Where before the fire a customer could call up and say, "Print another copy," and it could be done with the click of a key to be print ready - now the design has to be created from scratch. Did he have backup of his files? Yes. Three of them. All three located within the offices, all lost. He said if only he'd have taken one version of the files on a jump drive, tossed into the glove compartment or taken home, but all were in the office. Starting over begins with a sign where the building was, his own sign giving the new location on Highway 61 outside Columbia and the phone number.
