Evacuations After Flood Hit Retirement Park
Residents describe rising waters during the flood at a retirement park. Nancy Kelin, 87, planned to move to Missouri with a son and daughter-in-law after packing. Jeffry Liebert Sr., 67, retreated with his wife in their car, then tried to assist the park manager as water rose three feet inside and chest high outside. A woman in the next street died amid the deluge.
