As many of you are aware, the Springfield area was hit pretty hard by 2 tornados late Sunday night.  Each of these destroyed parts of the city.  While there are some areas that are now completely unrecognizable, I wanted to let you know that we were left untouched.  We heard the winds and the transformer blow, but there was no damage to our house or the houses of our family members who also live in town.  I thank God that no one in the family was greatly effected and that no one in the city was killed.
