I'm not super active on the board, but I appreciate that you're thinking of us out here. 

The tornados have left us with an unfathomable amount of destruction.  Central Oklahoma has had more than its fair share of tragedy, but it's inspiring to see how eager people are to pitch in and help time after time.

One thing that anyone can do is text FOOD to 32333 to give $10 to the Regional Food Bank of Oklahoma or text REDCROSS to 90999 to give $10 to the Red Cross Disaster Relief.  Both are easy and painless.  They just show up on your next phone bill. 

Anyway, thanks for the positive thoughts.  It's a truly horrific thing, but people here are practical and resilient.  We'll bounce back.

I heard from Andy on Facebook that they're OK.
Oh, good heavens. I didn’t realize. I send my condolences out to the rest of the O’Connor family.

The tornado missed us by about 10 miles.  Okies are an amazing bunch, so the outpouring locally has taken care of the immediate needs as well as anyone could hope.  As Dennis stated, the best way to help is through the Regional Food Bank of Central OK, or through Red Cross.  Both are great organizations.

Appreciate you thinking about us.  It's scary business, amazing that we only lost 24 people.
