Big storm north of Dallas Fri 23rd, FTers affected

Just had a call from a forum member.  News reports show storm damage to a building in Anna Tx , and reports of a fatality and showed a 1999, 40' U270 Foretravel with blue strips.  The member map does not show anyone in Anna.  Report said the barn roof was torn off, and showed the coach.  No names released yet in the report linked below.

I couldn't find any current MC members listed with an Anna, TX address.  The report says the couple was living in the FT.
