place. 3. Our neighbors barn and pasture fence was completely destroyed. Tnrir hones were injured and in'an open field. We managedtd get them to my bam and safety. My horses were also badly cut up. In the early morning on Oct. 19 a Dr. Weldy SUV pulled up and asked if we had any injured horses. We looked at them like they were angels. Dr. Selion and his son operated on foe spot on four horses. They then presented us with foe proper medicine and instructed us how to care for the horses. They came back a total of five or six times to follow up over foe next week. When foe bill came, there was no charge for tornado victims. We are all blessed to live in a community like ours with such caring and kind neighbors. We will never forget foe kindness of foe good people in our area." Mike Hinds C.R. 52
