Welcome To Find The Tornado

The Find The Tornado store has been re-opened and will remain open until October 1, 2012.  Thank you for all your support for Andy and his family.


Thank you to everyone who placed orders in the Find the Tornado store. The store has temporarily been closed so that we can fulfill the large amount of orders that were placed after Andy's death. The store will reopen once we have gotten a handle on the current orders. Andy's parents are starting the shipping process in the next few days. Thanks for your patience, everyone! We appreciate your support and understanding.


Hi, I’m Andy’s mom.

The last few days have been the toughest and longest days of my life. The last time I spoke to Andy we ended our conversation by saying “I love you”. I am so thankful that we did that. Andy truly loved what he did. He valued his family and his Storm Chasing family.

We are in awe to the response of the community that we live in, all the tributes and memorials on Facebook, and most of all the Storm Chasing family. Andy valued your friendships and all the encouragement that you gave him during these past, all too short, years.

We want to continue to hear from all of you. Our e-mail address is This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. .

These next few days and weeks are going to be long ones without him. Please give your kids a hug when you see them because you don’t know what might be waiting for you around the next corner.

Amen to that!

I’m Andy’s father and I wish I would have given him a hug before he left home last week! God bless all of you!

Sincerely,


Greg, Jo, Ashley, and Reegan Gabrielson

 


Some very sad news to report tonight. Our storm chaser and personal friend Andy Gabrielson was killed in a car accident on I-44 in Oklahoma this afternoon. This was confirmed to me by his dad Greg via phone about 6:30 this evening.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the Gabrielson family and our extended storm chaser family as well.
