One man in particular was especially aggrieved. Clem Schultz lost his wife Geraldine, his home, and his wife’s dog Missy, a white german Shepherd.

Still traumatized by the tornado, Missy fled from initial attempts at rescue. Clem’s grandson Tyler was eventually able to bring Missy back to safety, reuniting the pup with the man who had tragically lost too much of his family already in the devastating storm.
