Family search in Bay St. Louis

Dear Julie,
I'm Susan's mom and she told me today, that you had replied to her request for info....saying that I should contact you about posted lists of persons found from Katrina.
Could you please reply, with the internet sites, to my e-mail as my own skills [on my own] are pretty poor.
Good luck and many thanks.

Katrina Help

Hi Jean!

*HUGS*

I can not express how thrilled I am to hear from you! Every time I make contact with someone touched by Katrina I am so thankful they were fortunate enough to survive. I was raised in Gulfport, MS and have family members and friends from Biloxi, MS to New Orleans, LA. I give you my word I will do everything I can to help.

A few of my friends and I are slowly connecting families in different states to help. We are offering: transportation, temporary housing, shelter, water, food, clothing and gas among amenities. We are also working with various local officials to urge them to aid us in our efforts. The state of Oklahoma is assessing it's housing abilities as I write this.

Best wishes to you and your's.

Sincerely,
Julie K. Coultes

Thank You

Dear Julie,
Thank you. I'm going to try the links that you have furnished. Hopefully we will both be successful in finding our loved ones. It's very hard to not have finalization of family, after such a "happening" and although it may take a long time, with luck, and God's prayers, we will succeed.
With Affection,
Jeanne
