The home's resident, Karla Stracener, was the first to safety, walking across what used to be a door to her home. She was wearing her pajamas.

She worried about her parents. "My parents are in their 80s," Stracener said.

Stracener 's mother was next, stepping gingerly across the debris, a flashlight guiding her feet.

"Who's the president of the United States?" someone asked.

"Heaven only knows," he said, laughing.
