wow, this is beautiful! I didn't know that they had done a memorial; it is very heartwarming, and heartbreaking all at the same time. You did great justice to this. I'm sure the people who live around that area haven't forgotten about Mississippi though, but I guess you're right, we always here about New Orleans and not they're surrounding neighbors. Hugs to all involved.
Wow! I had no idea that this memorial was on the Gulf Coast. I will be certain to stop by the next time we are down that way. Such a wonderful moving page. I really love this!
What a gorgeous memorial! I actually teared up reading the journaling. I got the privilege of speaking with many Katrina survivors due to my previous job. Lovely lo and beautiful colors.
I never heard of the Katrina memorial - how interesting! You are right - when you think of Katrina - you think of New Orleans and the other affected areas don't come to mind.
Journaling - The Katrina Memorial is dedicated to those residents who lost their lives in the storm. The height of the memorial equals the depth of the storm surge during the hurricane. Local residents donated the items found in the case. It was very moving to read all the names on the list.
Journaling along the bottom - We sometimes feel that in the aftermath of what happened in New Orleans, the Mississippi Gulf Coast is forgotten.
