MARSHFIELD - A southwest Missouri Amish family and neighbors have rebuilt a tornado-destroyed home in less than 15 hours.

About 100 men and boys rebuilt Chris Graber's house on the same spot where Sunday's twister demolished his previous home, 10 miles east of Marshfield. The tornado scattered debris for hundreds of yards, and blew apart two other buildings and an outhouse. The Grabers themselves, their 1,000 chickens and 100 calves all made it safely through the storm.
