Homeowners Overwhelmed By Community Support Following Tornado Damage

A small group of volunteers banded together to help clear some of the smaller branches on Jan and Chuck Sanders Orleans property. It was struck by a tornado, Saturday afternoon. "They knocked at the door this morning about 8 o’ clock this morning and told me they were here to help," Jan Sanders said. It was a pleasant surprise for the 79-year-old. Sanders said neighbor Al Almy showed up to her Civil War-era home on his tractor. Almy said, "When something like this happens, the neighbors in this area tend to rally around each other and help each other out."
