Sad news from this region as this outbreak happened but when daybreak arrives maybe more trapped people may be found hopefully not.

I am praying for those people that were affected by this outbreak.

Tornado deaths are tragic...and for survivors and remaining relatives, the scars stay with you your entire life.

Like most tragedies, they have a "feel" all of their own that is comprised in your mind of images, screaming, sadness, natural gas odors, popping electrical lines, and debris everywhere.

My thoughts and prayers are with those who lost their loved ones.

Recovery, though, does wonderful things for the spirit of community...and from the debris will rise a community spirit not unlike that which followed September 11th.
