In light of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Keeler family stocks up on essentials like paper towels and cereal. “The stockpile is in case we go into a complete lockdown and they close the stores, or in case we get sick and we’re unable to get out,” Ellen Keeler said. “They’re selling out of stuff at stores. You go to the stores and there’s nothing there.”
