After the explosion, firefighters helped Antoinette Naber rescue her plants from her home. Twenty-three of 25 came back after the explosion. “I’m so proud of them,” Antoinette said. She praised the help she and her family received from Woodstock’s fire and police departments. Her 6- and 10-year old daughters made thank-you cards for the members of both departments.
