It’s one thing to marvel at the destruction caused by nature. The pictures are awesome, incredible, unbelievable. And then, there are the other pictures. Seemingly normal pictures of people, captured by a camera in a happy moment, a special occasion, a celebration. But these images of joyous, smiling people have been published on the web because they can’t be found. They’re missing. Vanished. Swept away by Hurricane Katrina.

Slidell Louisiana, near Military road.  Please help with location of the Logothety’s.  The four circled in the pic (Mandie, Richard, Darlene, and Logo) were in Slidell near Military road during Katrina.  I spoke with them at 8:30 am on Monday 29th before the storm and haven’t spoken with them since.  They were at Rob and Erma’s house (not sure of their last names) with the Taylor Family.  With the extensive damage to Slidell I am concerned about their safety.

An entire family. Nowhere to be found.  Where are they tonight?

The pleas for help, for information, for a sighting…go on, and on.

“Looking for my brother Jim”

“My son-in-law Chris”

“I’m looking for my sister”

If you are in the affected areas and you recognize the family above, remember seeing all of them, or even one of them, please go to the Missing Persons Board and let them know.

If you are looking for someone…in Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama or Florida…don’t give up. Keep searching.
