A Mourning Person

The United States was ravaged by a massive outbreak of deadly tornadoes. The South, the area in which I have basically spent my life, was devastated. Tuscaloosa, a town of Tide and tradition, has almost ceased to exist after a funnel cloud a mile wide swept through the town at two hundred plus miles per hour. Across the South, it seems sadly inevitable that the death toll will climb into the hundreds. In a moment, Tuscaloosa went from Dreamland to nightmare. Thoughts and prayers go out to all those who found themselves in the deadly and destructive path. The sunny South has seen catastrophe before and has the faith and spirit to rise again.
