Julie, You did a wonderful job on this video. You are right.. I can't imagine being in your farther's shoes the night of the storm. Just to think of it is chilling. I suppose amidst the tragedy of the event, at least your dad knew at that very moment just how much his parent's loved him. After all he was sheltered from the storm, but my heart wrenches to think that your dad had to learn how precious and precarious every moment can be...and as you noted... at that second, he had to become a man. I expect that there are many more touching stories about your dad, just waiting to be told. peace

This is one of the most amazing storm stories I've ever heard, Julie, and a touching tribute to your loving father. Thanks so much for sharing this.

One minor point, you might rename this video and remove "final 2" from the title, and also add a description to the video.

WOW! What a touching story. I love how you used a hero theme to describe your father.

Loved the script and narration. Sprinkling comments like “…you see…” throughout the script makes me feel like the narrator is speaking directly to me.

What an amazing tribute to your father! Great transition with the trees and road picture! It spoke volumes!
