Terry Hayes holds on Tuesday April 17, 2012, a picture of his daughter, Kelsey Hayes (right) that was found last Easter, two days after the Good Friday tornado destroyed his Bridgeton home. The photo was found stuck to the outside wall of the United Airlines break room at Lambert International Airport- about four miles from the Hayes home on Beaverton Drive. Hayes recently retired from United Airlines where he had worked since 2003. One of his former co-workers found the photo. The photo of Kelsey was taken in 1997 when she was in first grade. She was dancing with Michael Meiers.
