I hope someone will keep us updated on the folks that were in the park. Definitely devastating!

There were no fatalities because half of the the residents were away on holiday. My Forest River Vcross was totally destroyed.

Thank you. I was a month away from retirement. It's the older residents that are having problems moving on.

Alphadog, when you settle with insurance, please let us know if they settled without a problem. Then, it would be nice to know who's your carrier. You know we always wonder.

DW's cousin found this RV A/C duct in her pasture east of Van Alstyne, Texas - in southern Grayson county. Sherman area news reports are showing family photos, mail, roofing material, etc., from Garland and Sunnyvale.
