CEDAR SPRINGS-- Rummaging through piles of burnt wood, plastic and metal roofing, Terry Gravelin, 55, struggled Sunday morning to come to terms with the loss of his most precious possession: the American Martial Arts Institute.

A ferocious Saturday night fire, apparently set by a tipped candle, killed three pets and totaled the building on the corner of Main and Ash streets that housed the NAPA Auto Parts store, the martial arts school, Cedar Springs Floral and two upper level apartments.
