(TUSCALOOSA, Ala.)  In the devastated Holt community, LOCAL 15 found something you'd more likely find on a Gulf Coast beach: a shrimp boil.

After Wednesday's tornado ravaged Alabama, volunteers have turned out in droves.

Bayou La Batre's Organized Seafood packed up a truyck and headed north bringing hot meals to many families who have lost everything.

A comforting taste and a helping hand that brought a smile to the faces of storm victims who have been immersed in tragedy for four days now.

"These people are just riding on the wings of angels, that's all I can say," said storm survivor Scott Capell, tearfully.

For these volunteers from the Gulf Coast, it's about returnign the favor.

"At home we go through hurricanes. These people up here just needed a lot of help,"  explained Chuck Peyregne of Organized Seafood.
