A Stoughton-area family celebrated the visible conclusion of construction on their newly renovated home Thursday, surrounded by a crowd of friends and family who rallied around Natasha Iverson, her husband, Chad Gallagher, and the family’s four children after an armed killer broke into their home in 2024. Finishing touches to the home are anticipated early November.
Handwritten parking signs along a dead-end road east of Stoughton led to a grassy makeshift lot across the street from a pretty blue house with a bounce castle and tents in the yard. People mingled between tables, washing down plates of food with cans of cold soda. From a distance, it looked like a birthday party, and in a sense, it was, not for the birth of a person, but rather, a rebirth for a family that suffered the unthinkable.
Natasha Iverson greets some of the more than 100 guests who came to an early housewarming celebration for Iverson and her family’s newly refurbished home, a product of many community donations after an armed intruder and the law enforcement efforts to get him out of the home left it unlivable.
