MEMPHIS, TN- (WMC-TV) - A Germantown woman's family was hit hard by the devastating storm in Moore, Oklahoma.

Ashley Orr says she spent several hours waiting by her cell phone wondering if her family was still alive.

It was a phone call around 7 p.m. Monday night that finally put her mind to rest.

"They stood in the backyard of my aunt's house and happened to pick up one phone call and they told one person and it went through the grapevine," said Orr.

Orr has a lot of family in tornado ravaged Moore, OK.  It was not until that one phone call that she and her mother could finally be at ease.

"One of my cousins was in his truck and it got completely spun around as he was driving it," Orr added.

Pictures taken by Orr's family shortly after show the extent of their damage.  Windows were blown out of their homes.

The Memphis Area Association of Governments or (MAAG) was awarded the International Communicator Award of Distinction for the regional marketing campaign Day Trippin’.

Another restaurant is opening on Union Avenue in Midtown Memphis. Firehouse Subs will be the latest restaurant to call Midtown home. 

Firehouse Subs is planning to be open by mid-July in the same shopping center as FedEx Office and Verizon Wireless. The space is currently being leased by FedEx Office and will undergo renovations to split the current FedEx Office store into two spaces.

Firehouse Subs has a fast casual restaurant concept.  This will be the sixth Firehouse Subs to open in the Memphis area.  The Union Avenue location will join locations in East Memphis, Germantown, Collierville, on Stage Road in Memphis, and Southaven, Mississippi.
