Default From a New Orleans Native

Hello everyone,
Letting you all know that my family in New Orleans are now all accounted for.

The last two to be found ( or should I say found ME) was my mother and a nice. My mother called me this morning from Bossier City, La. Telling me she was evacuated on past Friday to where she is now in a senior nursing home. She is physically well, but at 82 years of age she is a really upset about losing her home and all attached. The niece was taken to Fort Worth, Tx.
My brother is on his way from LaPlaza,La to pick them up in those two locations. We need prayers for his safety on this journey.
Thank God for sparing my family.
Thank all of you for your prayers and concern.
God Bless you all..and God bless America
