excerpt from the book:
"It was a hot afternoon in midsummer of 1982 when Elden hooked up the small wagon to the rider mower to haul some trash out to the dumping ground in front of the stand of trees. Cloud cover had been increasing for about an hour, yet the sky did not have that yellowish, lowering look that so often precedes a tornado. The trash now loaded unto the wagon, Elden started up the rider mower and drove slowly down the road toward the west edge of Lakeview Hills. At the edge of the property he turned the rider mower southward onto the path that wound over the hill and between the cornfield and a thin line of trees along the west edge of the farm. Crossing the crest of the hill, he followed the path as it slanted back eastward between a thicket and the cornfield. At the bottom of the hill Elden at last reached his destination - the trash dump. He pulled the wagon in front of the trash dump and put the rider mower in neutral. He then began unloading the trash from the wagon. As Elden was busy unloading the trash, he did not see anything of what was unfolding behind him.
No more had Elden commenced his descent down the backside of the hill to the trash dump than the weather commenced deteriorating rapidly. The clouds began turning ominously dark, the wind started to pick up, and then that yellowish hue that so often preceded a tornado crept over the sky to the west. The sound of the wind gently rustling through the trees was soon drowned out by the shrillness of this new wind whistling madly as it accelerated eastward. Suddenly there it was - a swirling funnel cloud less than a mile to the west! And it was whipping its way directly towards Lakeview Hills! In fact, the tornado was moving in a line to go directly toward the trash dump where Elden was still unloading trash from the wagon hooked to the back of the rider mower. Elden was in line to meet a tornado...."
