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.
