Hurricane Katrina (... Thanks for your prayers).

[Danny]

Is Kent his real name?

 

[VIPFREAK]

Looks like it

I weathered the storm and watched the destruction first hand with the surrounding neighborhood.
To see roofs fly and cave in, shingles becoming frisbees of death if you were outside in Katrina would make you appreciate all that survived and lived to tell about it.

My family is ok too and their homes were intact too.

Many tears have rolled from these eyes knowing there are many who's loved ones are missing and not heard from.

It's a very sorrowful time here on the Gulf Coast including the hardest hit areas of Bay St. Louis, Waveland, Gulfport, Biloxi in Mississippi, as well as all of the folks in New Orleans which lost everything they ever had.

I hope and pray for normalcy again but looking at the destruction in my hometown, may be years for that to occur.

Kent, hope you're ok man, may God be with you, your family, and hope for your safe return to the GTPlanet. 👍

Glad you and your family made it.

You've got work ahead of you, but you'll get strength from rebuilding what's around you. You'll be very proud of what you achieve in the coming months.

Good luck.

I've been lurking around this thread for the past 3 weeks awaiting good news, unfortunately good news has not happened (yet) and it's becoming a bit disconcerting.
I'm continuing to hope that his failure to contact is just a problem with Kents ability to communicate with us (and family).

Now for the question at hand: Seeing that Old Geezer is in contact with Kents family, I was wondering if is it possible that we try and help them out (if they would like).

Can we set up some sort of Paypal account to donate funds to or send them anything to help them out in their time of need (food, clothing, etc.)?

Old Geezer... Could you get in contact with them and find out if they require anything?

I'm wishing Kent and his family is well and I'm patiently awaiting (for any) word.

Sincerely,
Mr. Toad

Kent's family sends you their sincere Thank You Mr. Toad! 👍 Prompted by your post, I gave them yet another call but found they still have NO News! They promised once again to let me know when they hear something & of course I'll post it here as soon as possible.

Thanks again for your consideration & the Good Thoughts & Prayers put forth by so many posters in this thread! 👍 ..O.G.
