THE SUN CAME OUT !!!!!
After several days of rain and tornadoes, the sun appeared just as Tuesday (5-21-13) was coming to a daylight conclusion.
This certainly helped buoy the spirits of the recovery personnel in Moore and our county of Pottawatomie.
This probably sounds trite; however, Oklahomans
are the most caring and helpful people I have ever been around. The outpouring of help in every form continues to astound the out-of-state reporters. But hey, that's what Oklahomans do best.
I have never felt prouder to be an adopted Okie !

HEALTH AND SAFETY REPORT----DAY 2
TODAY, MONDAY, MAY 20, 2013 A MONSTER, 2-MILE WIDE TORNADO ROARED THROUGH NEWCASTLE AND MOORE, OK.
The destruction, death and injuries are massive. Even the grass was pulled up as the buildings were destroyed. The search and rescue efforts at a school are going full force. Several young kids are missing at a Moore elementary school. Frantic parents are awaiting word on their children. The scene is beyond description. Reporters are near tears.
The tornado is being described as three times bigger than the May 3rd 1999 tornado which came through this same area.
Thankfully, the storm lifted about 15 miles from our city. We are safe---thank the Lord!

Health and Safety Report
On Sunday, May 19, 2013 three powerful
tornadoes hit Shawnee. As of this Post only one fatality in Shawnee; however, much property damage and many injuries. Rescue efforts are continuing at full force.
By the Grace of God, my family came through with no injuries. We spent several minutes in our bathroom. My wife and the three grandchildren that live with us sure did some heavy duty praying.
The TV coverage is wall to wall. Tornadoes are often and violent in OK. When they get close it really gets your attention.
One concerned classmate called to check on our status. Sure made me feel very grateful and thankful for lifelong friends.
