Todd Apfel Named As Finalist For
2023 Who's Hoo Country Music Awards
30 Days
On June 2nd the Paper Mill in Tama, IA closed its doors for good. The mill had been a mainstay employer in the community for 147 years. Then on May 2nd they notified the employees that they were closing in 30 days. Over 100 families in this small community had their lives immediately turn upside down. Many of these employees had over 30 years working for the company only to be told they had to start their lives over. I wrote this song to help raise awareness and support for the families affected.
