Great story! I wanted to watch it again. Whitney

Comment by Wesley Fryer on June 9, 2008 at 12:30pm: Great job sharing this story, Lissa! I really liked the way you not only included original photos of the tornado, but also images of the tombstones of those who died as well as pictures of Blair today. Having just visited Blair 2 weeks ago for our workshop in Altus made this story even more interesting to me. I hope this is the first of many stories from tornado survivors that we will share here in our project.
