Most farms and homes up and down W. Hetwick Road and State Route 19 in Ottawa County were hit hard by the severe storms.
“When I looked out the window and saw all that turbulence and everything, you’re not believing what you’re seeing,” Jeff Webb said.
“I just saw both of the barns being ripped apart, and that’s when I knew I better get downstairs, and I was yelling for my wife,” Webb said. “It’s a mess; that’s all I can say is it’s a mess,” Brough said. “This building cost me $125,00 when I put it up and the barn. I don’t know what they are going to say on that, I have no idea.”“This area is rather sparsely populated, but those that it did affect were affected in a significant way,” Pettersen said.
“Help them get back on their feet, so they can work something out with their insurance until they have somewhere to go, but the community is fairly resilient. A lot of neighbors helping neighbors out,” Pettersen said."Everything takes time,” Webb said. “All good things do, so yeah, we’ll rebuild.”“It sounded like a freight train, just like everybody says,” Webb said. “If you hear a freight train and you don’t live by the tracks, you better go to your basement. Just lucky to be alive.
