Very sorry to hear about that. Glad everyone is OK.
I used to live in Joplin and went down there for about a week to volunteer with the cleanup effort. As devastated as the area is, humor and hope are keeping people on the up and up.
For example, most of the homes had spray painted info on them (address, shelter info, insurance, etc.). One home had damage to all but one bedroom, so the side of the home was spray painted with "Room for rent!"
Another home, missing it's roof and some walls, had a sign that read, "Open floor plan, skylight."
