Good job putting together this sad piece of Flint, Michigan history. I was five years old and remember spending the long night in a scary basement.

My Dad’s brother’s Family died in this terrible storm. I was a little baby boy then.
Wow that is really something.I grew up just two miles south of the tornado’s path. I was born in 1967,and grew up hearing stories of this storm. I never imagined this kind of devastation. Great video,Great song,Thank you. God rest their souls.
Incredible early pictures! Very Nice Video!

that was worse then a war zone. unbelievable. speking of war i image many suffed from ptsd after that. the might be the wosrt destrution ive seen of a twister and ive seen a ton.
wow my parents & sisters went thru this storm. lived on coldwater. I remember some graphic stories mom told me about helping after. One pic i have my dad is pointing at brush in the basement area - its where they were laying on top of my sisters to protect them better and i am just amazed they did live thru this. Dad says when it happened - ma thought school was on fire and dad says fire hell get in the basement…………..
