Monette, AR
Leachville, AR
Hayti, MO
Caruthersville, MO
Tiptonville, TN
Cayce, KY
Benton (Gilbertsville), KY
Dawson Springs, KY
Bowling Green, KY

These towns got hit hard to. It’s a mess over on Kentucky Lake at Moors Camp. Bowling Green has a Go Fund Me set up.

I appreciate the support we’re getting from all over the country. I don’t want these towns to be forgotten about.

Any word from the candle factory on rescues?

Hope y’all are hanging in there

Appreciate you doing this.
Our camp is just outside Dawson Springs. My dad had to get in his truck and drive as fast as he could out of the path bc the camp is just a trailer home and it was headed directly at him. We were lucky as it must have jogged slightly to the south and our place was spared, but many people we know in town lost everything.

The candle factory is a lot of mixed reports. I’m hearing dozens are dead. The report that they had plenty of time to evacuate is growing. Alot of businesses closed at 7-7:30 in anticipation of it.

I remember hearing the candle factory had a storm shelter. If true, that could have reduced the toll.

I was born in Kennett, MO; my Aunt lives in Senath, MO and she said they didn't get any bad weather.
