JOPLIN, MO - MAY 19: Codessa Schoonover cries next to what remains of her grandmother's home after she was killed when a tornado struck almost one year ago on May 19, 2012 in Joplin, Missouri. Behind her is the St. John's Medical Center that was destroyed during the tornado. Tuesday will mark the one-year anniversary of the EF-5 tornado that devastated the town. The tornado left behind a path of destruction along with 161 deaths and hundreds of injuries, but one year later there are signs that the town is beginning to recover.
