In this photo taken Friday, Nov. 18, 2012, Joanne McClenin holds a baptismal certificate for her father, Joseph Pompa, in her home, which was damaged by Superstorm Sandy, in the New Dorp section of Staten Island, New York. This document, along with many others that she kept from her parents, was stored in a shed outside that was completely washed out of her yard during the storm. Days after the storm, McClenin found the document on her doorstep, placed there by someone that had found it and recognized the name of her father. "I was there for them [her parents] in their time of need, now I feel like now he's there for me," McClenin said while talking about the document. (AP Photo/Seth Wenig)
