The Monroe County Sheriff's Office is investigating the fire as possible arson.
They say witnesses saw the co-owner Gary Lawrence leaving the closed bar just before the 911 call about the fire. What happened next shocked Dunn.
"The other owners, of course, are devastated, but keep them in your prayers, and all the families," says Dunn.
The sheriff's office says after leaving the bar, he swapped cars at his sister's house, then drove to his ex-wife's house in Macon, where he shot and killed himself.
Larry Hill's name is melted off the sign in front of the bar. He puts on karaoke at the bar on Friday nights.
When he looks at the blackened building, he remembers the music.
It was a place where he has family memories.
