Mulholland Grocery first opened in 1875. Fourth-generation owner Tom Mulholland bought the store back into the family before a tragic fire burned it to the ground in 2021. Tom decided to rebuild, even using his own retirement funds to finance the project at one point.

I join my colleagues in mourning the passing of State Senator Julian Garrett. Senator Garrett dedicated many years to serving Iowa with dignity and an unwavering commitment to his values. I am keeping his friends and family in my prayers during this time of loss.
