Tornado and High Winds Devastate Nappanee
Quote:
ELKHART COUNTY, Ind. - A state of emergency has been issued for parts of Indiana, particularly the city of Nappanee.
This after a tornado left behind damage and destruction.
For many Nappanee residents life just won't be the same.
"Unbelievable, never imagined anything like it," Kris Huffer Nappanee resident....................There's a travel trailer factory totally destroyed, some fast food restaurants that have been totally destroyed, along with some homes. The storm did not descriminate against homes or buisnesses it destroyed whatever it could or whatever was in its path," said Sgt. Tony Slocum with the Indiana State Police.
Especially hard hit, Gulfstream Coach Fairmont Incorporated which makes rvs and motor homes.
The twister demolished one of its facilities leaving possibly hundreds of people out of work.

After Katrina a friend of mine was hauling RVs and pulled out of this travel trailer facility a couple times.

I haven't been up there for 10 days. Had a backhaul back into Canada.

Getting ready to go up and get load. Haven't decided whether to even go through Nappanee.
