20 months after Katrina


Last weekend the Meyer family loaded up and headed to Pascagoula, Mississppi for a visit with T-Maw & T-Paw (my step-mom & my dad). Life is slowly returning to normal for this coastal city hit hard by Katrina. Please keep the people of Pascagoula in your prayers as they try to rebuild their city, homes and lives amidst the ongoing struggle for full recovery of their losses with the insurance companies. It simply amazes me that nearly two years later there are still people living in FEMA trailors due to the bureaucratic nonsense that infects the rebuilding process for so many people. Let us not forget the thousands of people who are still without homes all along the gulf coast. Remember them the next time you sit down at the table for dinner with your family or you watch the game on your big screen tv.....remember the thousands still without a place to call home.
