TORNADO RELIEF: Reader Maynard Schmale writes: “I live in the Anderson hills subdivision, in Harvest, Al. My home escaped damage but many of my neighbors were not as lucky. Over 60 homes were destroyed or rendered uninhabitable in the subdivision. My wife and I were out helping our neighbors clean-up. I was utterly overwhelmed with the number of volunteers who came to help. There were lots of people from churches (I remember seeing Baptist church buses and talking to Methodists). And there were also lots of people who just came as individuals because it was the right thing to do. There were lots of people with chainsaws and people who brought food and water to the residents and the volunteers. It was amazing to watch 50 volunteers descend on a damaged home and move all of the movable debris to the street.” I guess Chuck Simmins called it.
