My girlfriend, Michelle Holster, at the time of the tornado tragedy and still today, held a 7 year old African American boy in her arms while he died after she had found him laying face down in a ditch. The boy had apparently been overlooked by the people in the neighborhood after the tornado had passed. My girlfriend couldn't sleep without thinking of that little boy for months and she still has trouble sleeping today because of that horiffic experience.
