Thanks for all the list of phone numbers. I will forward it to my sister.
I just found out this morning that my brother-in-laws family (uncles, aunts, cousins, nieces and nephews) all lost their homes in New Orleans. Now they are all living with my sister in Houston. I just hope that these agencies can assist them right away. It is really devastating. My heart goes out to the victims. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Thurman Pedigo Sent: Wednesday, August 31, 2005 11:31 PM To: hardhats-members@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: RE: [Hardhats-members] We DO Care - YES we care about Katrina Wednesday, August 31, 2005 8:57 PM Gregory Woodhouse Said: "What happened is so horrible that almost anything we can say seems inappropriate, or at least inadequate."
