Default Mena and Dequeen storm damage?

Is everyone out there ok? It appears that Mena has really been hit hard according to every report I've heard and read.

Downtown Mena was/is a very neat place. It's right out of the 50's and 60's,and I hate to hear much of it has been destroyed or damaged.

I have a daughter and 3 grandkids in Mena. They are ok.
