Eight minutes changed a Tombstone ’s family’s life.“It was mostly 'hold on and pray',” Michael Slentz said. A microburst last Friday caused significant damage to the home he shares with his wife, Kirsten Evans. He says the manufactured home split in half, where the add-on was, and the roof on the add-on blew off. “It was only about eight minutes, but I'll tell you that was one of the longest eight minutes that I've experienced” Slentz said.

Slentz says they don't know if the house is still livable, with only half the house stable, with electricity, and not damaged. That's the reason the couple says their kids aren't currently staying there. “I know some of my books and some family mementos and things like that we've definitely lost,' Evans said. 'My laptop for school is drying out currently, to see if it will be salvageable.”As for the house, it’s split in half and the roof is missing.
