 Life is good all this month at Appalachian Wireless. Get the LG G5 for just one penny with sign-up or renewal of a two-year service agreement. That's almost $100 off the regular price. Better service, bigger savings. That's today's Appalachian Wireless. Stands by for important weather information. This is a tornado emergency for Saturdaysville, Ballot, Paintsville, Riceville, Van Leer and the court. As today marked the five-year anniversary of the deadly tornadoes that ripped through much of our region, residents, first responders, as well as city and county officials, all gathered in the city of Saliersville to hold a remembrance vigil. For a night, many will not soon forget. I sent my rescue four or two men and then I sent my son. He got permission to take an ambulance. They got down about a mile with them 205 and then my son calls me on the phone. He said, Dad, he said my windshield is gone. He said the softballs, bowling balls, they've hit the windshield. When dawn came up and then we drove out toward the parkway, it was this pure devastation. How did we survive? And the only thing you can say is that God gave us the way that nobody was supposed to leave this earth that night or that morning. Although folks have gathered here at Raimi Park in Saliersville to remember the devastating loss that occurred in this region five years ago today, they're also remembering the way family, friends and communities rallied around one another during this troubling time. The response we had is just heartwarming. People like Letcher County, since their judge warred over, it was just something that we could not have done without our neighbors. All the things that we were able to take advantage of, the help that we're able to get from the federal government, from the state government, that local match was made by our local neighbors, by our volunteers. And the love that they showed, they proved once again that Kentuckians, but particularly Eastern Kentuckians, we stick together. After a brief moment of silence, the Saliersville weather warning system was sounded at 7.02 p.m., marking the exact time the tornado tore through Saliersville.
