OKC Devastation

[BradBigBrain]

Please check in here if you know of PG people who may have been affected.

I spoke with IHateClowns this morning and he and his immediate family are fine. They lost a cousin and have many friends who have lost a lot and have had a lot of property damage. A family is living with them and will be there for a while.

Glad to hear that IHC is doing somewhat well. My prayers will be sent out to him and his family for their loss.

Thanks for posting this BBB

Been watching the news coverage today, appalled at the devastation. The rising death toll and the uncertainty for those whose loved ones are still missing is even worse.
Glad to hear IHC and his immediate family is OK. I hope any other Litsters in the area are also safe.

Such a picture of devastation coming across on the TV.

I am sure we are all thinking of the people affected and wish them
every ounce of luck and assistance they deserve!

There are a few lady litsters in that area and without revealing who they are they are both near and dear to my hearts and I am happy to say they are both safe I am thankful for that

In all the sadness there always seems to be a good story or two. This is one I saw, please have tissues ready, it will make your heart swell.

I know that there will be help coming from all over but is there anything that's needed?
If so a way to pitch in?

Storms similar to these aren't unheard of where I am and they break your heart even once you've come through. There's no place to look that hasn't been changed somehow.
Prayers and blessings to all who have been touched by it.

Good to hear about IHC. Also happy to hear that FGG's friends are ok.

I am just so heartbroken and cannot even fathom all of this...

I am so happy to know IHC is safe...A beautiful soul he is ( and his wife ) to take in others right now and give them safety and love...

I cannot watch the news, it makes me cry...I used to live in Oklahoma City, so it hits my heart close to home sentimentally too...I have 2 close friends there who are fine...

Continued prayer and healing thoughts being sent...

Bless everyone there...

The Westboro Baptist "Church" decided to show up in Moore, Oklahoma following the tornado earlier this week. This is what they ran into, The Patriot Guard Riders, a group of bikers who travel to destinations Westboro is attempting to protest to keep them out.

Having seen several of these storms, the best advice I can give as far as donations is to donate money and blood. Both seem to always be in short supply.

Fortunate that yesterday's tornado (31 May) didn't do any major damage to where I live...it seemed like it turned just 1 mile west of where I live.

Thoughts are w/ the others who have lost loved ones
