Another Story From Prattville, AL

There was also good TV news coverage on various occasions with the supplies as well volunteers reaching out to those with needs. The mayor, other relief workers and affected families were very appreciative of the quick response and the heartfelt gift from Tennessee.

P.S. I spoke with one of the first families to receive relief supplies and they said that they had just used their final monthly allottment of food stamps at Walmart prior to the tornado striking. They were outside with their groceries and shopping cart and had to run inside
Walmart for cover, abondoning their shopping cart. In the process they lost all of their food when the tornado hit the Walmart shopping center. You and you volunteers can imagine how grateful they were for the relief supplies.

God Bless,

Wayne Gaines
