Watkins (pop about 800) got hit Monday evening. One 86 yo lady hurt with cracked vertebrae- probably the most devout person in our parish. About 25 houses damaged, several completely gone, many roofs gone. Electrician shop destroyed. Adjacent building had only one hole in the roof. Probably thousands of trees destroyed. Tornado skipped up and down...going up street, skipped over the Catholic church and (under construction) parish center. N and S of that lot, buildings damaged, 100 year old trees down.
Tombstones upended in cemetery, half block from church. Roof damage at new assisted living center. Large tanks overturned at fert plant. Started in field half mile south of town, ended about 5 miles north of town. We"re 4 miles SW, no damage, but a week ago we had 90-1000 mph wind, and it blew a 50 foot auger over at the wet bin, barn shingles torn off, couple trees down.
So much already cleaned up in town, with hundreds of volunteers. Second tornado I"ve been in. I was in town when it happened.

Although he himself has never actually owned or restored a tractor, he was always enthusiastic and always around helping with other peoples projects.
