A 16-year-old Joplin teen was found dead today.
Lantz Hare, who attended the same high school as Will Norton, was also in his car when the tornado hit. Like Norton, Hare was sucked out of his car by the 200 mph winds of the half-mile wide tornado that struck Joplin Sunday afternoon.
Lantz's mother, Michelle, said his car was on one side of the train tracks, but when rescuers found his vehicle, it had been carried several hundred yards across the tracks into a field.
The vehicle was completely totalled: the windshield broken, the hood was smashed, and the driver's side was pushed in against what was once a wooden pole. It would have been nothing short of a miracle if Lantz had survived.
TO ALL OF THESE FAMILIES WE SEND OUR LOVE AND OUR TOTAL DEEPEST CONDOLENCES IN YOUR LOSS AND WE DEDICATE THIS NEW SONG WE MADE TODAY TO ALL OF THESE POOR SOULS WHO HAVE PAID THE ULTIMATE PRICE MAY THEY REST IN PEACE AMEN.
ETERNAL REST GRANT UNTO THEM OH LORD AND LET PERPETUAL LIGHT SHINE UPON THEM AMEN.
PLEASE KNOW WE DEDICATE THIS TO LANTZ AND TO ALL THE BROKEN FAMILIES WHO HAVE LOST SO MUCH NOW HERE

MESSAGE TO ALL, do not allow the user 'goddhatesfags' to affect you in any way. the user name 'godhatesfags' is associated with that group of people that attend the Westboro Baptist Church that also picket and protest at military funerals. they are suppose to show up at the memorial service in Joplin. Just delete their posts and ignore their site! Mississippi handled them very well, google brandon mississippi westboro and read and laugh, spread the word!
