 I called Ken to let him know we'd taken a direct hit, but I was fine. But I couldn't get out, Deb remembered. Ken got the call when he was in nearby Abilene. By the time Ken got home, it was still light enough to see the damage. Deb had very deep bruises on her back, but no broken bones. Although they had no house, no clothes, no food, the community immediately rallied together. Ken and Deb stayed that night at Ken's brother's house, but neither slept a wink.
