THE McHENRY PLAINDEALER Thursday, April 15« 1965 •joi ER MARY LOU HARTOG WONDER LAKE NEWS <68-7176 FORMER {RESIDENTS LOSE HOME IN TORNADO SUNDAY Bill and Barbara Fiala and their children have moved in with Bill's mother, Betty Fiala of Lake Shore Drive, temporarily. Bill and Barbara were vicr tims of the tornado which hit Colby Subdivision in Crystal Lake last Sunday. The Paul Murdock family, also former Wonder Lakers, were neighbors of the Fialas in Colby Subdivision and they also suffered severe damage to their home. Notes: The main topic of discussion everywhere one turned last weekend was, of course, the devastation left by the tornado which struck the area last Sunday afternoon. So many of us had friends or relatives in the area and experienced the helpless feeling of wanting to do something to help but not knowing what to do. This P^lm Sunday will truly be placed in the same category with the Good Friday earthquakes of last year in Alaska.
