On Aug. 17th, Quinton Anderson walked through the doors of the new Joplin High School. This was a miracle because, after being hit by the tornado, he spent five and half weeks in the hospital. Quinton lost both of his parents and his two dogs. Today he is living with his sister and, during the week, with his best friend. Quinton is planning for the future. After graduation he is going to college to study molecular microbiology.

Dear Quinton, I saw your picture in a local paper regarding the Rudy Awards, congratulations for that! Honestly, you looked so much like my son I thought for sure someone used his picture so I looked you up on you tube and came across your harrowing story. I was expecting a happy football story that was not the case. To you and your sister my heart go out to you both for the courage you brought foward and I wish only the best for you both.

Quinton it was an honor to meet you today. After visiting Joplin once, I plan on returning many times to see the inspiration and hope every kid there provides. Keep playing that violin with Joplin Eagle Pride Quinton. -Member of the Little Elm Marching band
