Thanks to all who pitched in after tornado

To the editor:

I just wanted to say thank you so much to everyone who has helped Jackson get back on track. I hope you will never go through what we did that night. But we sure do have a lot to be thankful for: no deaths or anyone hurt very badly.

I have spent the biggest part of my life working as a nurse in our nursing homes. I want to thank God for keeping our elderly residents safe. Just to lose one is too many. Material things can be replaced. A life can't.
