ONE YEAR WITHOUT LES: On May 16, 2025, a deadly tornado tore through Kentucky, flattening homes, destroying businesses and killing 20 people, according to the governor’s office.

In London alone, 17 people were killed, including Laurel County firefighter Maj. Les Leatherman.

Standing on the lot where her home once stood, Michelle Leatherman recalled that fateful night.
