The people are kind, helpful, and generous.

After a recent tornado, this town pulled together to help dig each other out. In fact, an Emory local, Nathan Wright, used his metal detector to help people find their missing possessions lost in the tornado. His efforts locate a young woman’s missing engagement and wedding ring.
