I remember that day. We lived west of Indianapolis in Hendricks county. All the bad storms went around us. The Xenia tornado was big news.
I was nearby in Indianapolis at Marian College. My roommate had his house completely demolished in Cincinnati. His brother’s car was found 500 yards away upside down in a creek. My parents’home had just Hail damage. Two other friends at Marian had some damage. It took 4 hours to call home for me. All the lines were busy or just gone.
My Aunt and Uncle lived in Xenia at the time. My uncle was based at Wright-Pat and my aunt was a school teacher in Xenia then.
