Yeah, I was curious about it and looked the story up too. Really sad.

One of Laura Ingalls Wilder's books mentions a storm that blew enough snow in the town....I think they were in DeSmet, so that it was up to the top of the lst story then the wind came back and blew it all away.

I can't think of the name of the book. I need to go shovel snow here in Indiana.
