They were out seconds after…We live in the Goldridge Area [near Cullman, AL]. Personally, we did not have any damage other than no power and loss of work. Some of our commumity didn’t make it through the storm. But I would like to thank the Goldridge Fire Dept and all the others in our community for a job well done, what a great job each and every one of them did to make sure every person was taken care of. They gave people a place to gather, a place to either eat or cook a meal or sleep. They made sure our elderly were taken care of and they gave their time helping to clear the roadways. They helped with emergency calls and even spent days handing out tarps, food, water, oxgen tanks, making sure our community was safe and well considering the destruction. They went house to house and spent many long hours giving all they could to help our community stick together and be safe. Thank you all……
