JO ANN CLEVELAND 4/27/2011 10:10:51 AM

Thanks everybody, your comments are very encouraging..

My daughter Kim Lund lives about 5 miles from me and their house was hit by a tornado, trees down everywhere, one fell on the roof..but thankfully they are safe...we are getting ready for another in the next hour...maybe delayed in comments for the rest of the day, probably will turn my computer off..

Robert, the tornados were terrible but we are safe...north a couple of miles and south a couple of miles were really bad..a mother and father, their son and his wife and one of their 17 month ols twins died....sad, sad, sad!

I never meant to cause you any sorrow

I only wanted to see you laughing in the purple rain
