10-year-old Riley Kraft s frontline heroes are his parents Chris and Suzie Kraft, who own a meat locker business in Ruthven, Iowa. My parents have not stopped working since the pandemic started. They work hard and farmers needed them, he said.
Riley says it wasn t even an option for his parents to shut down their business during the pandemic. They knew farmers needed to sell their livestock and Americans needed reasonably priced meat. As a family business, everyone at the meat locker is treated as such, and in a state that doesn t have mask mandates, the Krafts have had to set their own regulations to keep everyone safe.
