Even tho i'm some 1000 miles away, i feel in my heart what people are feeling. when watching the clips of these monster tornados, i began to feel very afraid and trimbling. God be with you all in this time of need. My prayers goes out to each and everyone who have been affect. That means the entire world.

Marie Go to www.facebook.com/cullmanlife - post your request there - you should get a response from someone who may know them. Right now they still do not have power and most places do not have water. the aerial video on facebook is devastating to watch. I am in TN but have family in Cullman - its really really badPamela
