Friends and Family touched by North Texas Tornado
Rockport,
Texas
Weather
Conditions; Sunny, 57 degrees
We
haven’t posted much because the weather here has been cold and rainy.
The
Weather back home (Rockwall-Garland, Texas) has finally claimed down.
Not
only have they been dealing with more flooding again but also recovering from
several tornados.
A
total of 11 people were killed by the December 26th tornado outbreak.
One
of my mother’s cousins lives in Rowlett, Texas. When the storm sirens went off she took her two dogs and hide in an interior closet of her home.
She
survived but her home is gone.
My
ex-brother-in-law’s 88 year old mother’s house in Copeville,Texas was also destroyed.
Thankfully she also survived.
My
niece’s grandmother on her father’s side was at home with one of her grandchildren
in Rowlett, Texas when the storm sirens went off. They got into a closet down
stairs. The tornado leveled the house and they had to be dug out. The
grandmother was hospitalized because she has something lodged in her back.
The
family appeared on World news digging their dogs from the rubble two days after the tornado.
It’s
so heart breaking to see all the damage on the news and to know some of these people who have lost everything.
My
friend Jerry and his wife lived in Copeville, Texas. Matter of fact, just a couple
miles down the road from the park we worked this past summer.
He
and his wife were found fifty yards or so from their house. He didn’t make it.
His wife was found under debris and in bad shape.
She’s
now in the hospital with rods and pins in her right arm and right leg. She also
has broken bones in her back, pelvis, wrist, and ankle.
She
told her son the only reason she survived was because Jerry held her as the
storm tore through their house.
Jerry
was only 49 years old. He and his wife had just celebrated their 25 wedding
anniversary.
This
is just heart breaking. Jerry was a great guy and always made me laugh. Everyone
he worked with loved him.
