2009 Silverton Pet Parade

Around 4:50 p.m., Jan. 12, in Haiti, Scotts Mills resident Cecelia Taylor was writing in her journal while on the roof of the three-story dorm with her sister, Grace Fudge of Salem. Twins Janna and Dawna Peters, 39, of Mt. Angel, were on their bunk bed on the second floor with Janna journaling and Dawna napping. Rosie Thompson of Silverton and her 22-year-old daughter, Cierra Thompson of Mt. Angel, were on the first floor. Although physically on different levels, the same thing crossed their minds when the 7.0 earthquake hit Haiti at 4:53 p.m.
