Fun and games help young tornado victims cope with loss
Baseballs were cracking and balls soared high in the air Saturday at a children's fair for young tornado victims at the Stony Brook North mobile home park, which was hit hard by last week's storms. Volunteers organized the event to help youngsters cope with the disaster. Four children were killed last week at Stony Brook North, which is off Captial Boulevard just north of the beltline, when a tree smashed down on their mobile home.

Volunteers organized the event to help youngsters cope with the disaster. Four children were killed last week at Stony Brook North, which is off Captial Boulevard just north of the beltline, when a tree smashed down on their mobile home. Nearby, the twister destroyed a home belonging to 11-year-old Hevid Hernandez. "We used to live next to the woods and all the trees that were there came down on our house," he said. "I was feeling kind of sad because I was like, 'Where are we going to live now?'"
