I wasn't even alive yet, but as a lifetime(for the mostpart) resident, seeing Corning like that made me cry. It's almost hard to imagine Corning the way it was then, but it seemed great, other than the flood, of course. The June 17th festival and surroundings seemed like good times..and according to my parents and their friends, it was :) My condolences to any who lost loved ones, and my respect to all of you who lived through it...you deserve it :)

I was 9yrs old on vacation, going to Niagara Falls. We were staying in Painted Post ? Motel. Early in the morning, water rushed under the door and awoke us. Went to 2nd floor and was rescued by amphibious truck/boats. Taken to Corning Research. Local residents took families in. Spent vacation in someone's home with only the clothes on our back, but dad, mom, brother and myself were safe. The older couple in the motel room next to ours was found dead. Makes 1 Think, where will you spend eternity?

I was 9 years old and remember looking down from the hill where we were staying at a relatives up on 6th street and seeing water from mountain to mountain. Seems like yesterday to me.

People just got up & helped, there wasn't any crybabies saying FEMA didn't help. They did start again! "Smile, things could be worse."

I was 9, we luckily just moved up on North Hamilton street (HILL) right before the flood - we had LOTS of people staying in our house, I remember water melons washing up by Hornby Dr. Gov't handed out the great chicken and gravy in cans, riverside had all those paper rolls all over the place from the box factory..

I lived in Lindley, N.Y. we had 7ft. of water on the first floor and and we were in the upstairs of the house. The house just upstream of us ripped in half and the elderly couple inside survived. I remember it well. I was in the eighth grade then.
