Editor's parents find their Washington, Ill., home in ruins | |
|
November 19, 2013 Daily Herald Political Editor Mike Riopell writes that his parents' house is a crumbling, debris-filled shell with no roof, their Jeep is crushed and their Ford Ranger is in a front yard across the street. Bob and Marianne Riopell live in Washington, where an apparent EF-4 tornado ripped through hundreds of homes as if they were made of paper. "Given Peoria radio reports streaming through my phone, we were hopeful the path of the tornado had missed their house. It didn't."
