     T.O. lived at Hattiesburg, I know nothing about him, the last time I heard he was 
very aged.  Sherwood lives in Sherveport, La which is in the northern part and I haven't heard of any damage in that area. The Hattiesburg was hit very hard but 
I heard of no loss of life there.   

     I've been concerned about Lee Sharp who lives about 4 miles inland from Ocean 
Springs, MS,  it's beach front was total davastation, I feel that he is safe but just 
unable to communicate but will let you know when he gets on line.  He puts a 
message  on line once in a while.  I was there about a month ago and his citrus 
was looking very good.  Sometimes citrus takes a big beating by losing leaves 
but weathers the storm otherwise.   

     That's all that I know personally that might have been in storms way. If I do 
hear anything else will let you know. 

     I'm not registered to send on the NAFEX  line, that's the reason this is personal. 
I live in Columbus, GA, next to ALA.  We only had welcome showers from KATRINA. 

                                                            With Best Regards,
