The tornado that struck west Tennessee on February 5, brought back vivid memories of a quiet Sunday evening, not quite two years ago, that was shattered by the wails of tornado sirens. When morning finally dawned, we found that 16 of our neighbors and friends had perished in the storm.

The devastation left in the wake of that tornado reminded us, once again, that our most important possessions are not the houses we own, or the cars we drive, or the money we earn. Those things most precious are our families and friends - treasures that can never be replaced.
