My sister, a member of the National Guard, asked me to request prayers and information on behalf of am Army Reserve friend of a hers from basic training. Since Katrina hit the Gulf Coast, my sister has been trying to reach Teresa Export to no avail. She is worried about her safety and that of her child.
She's a 20-something black woman, approximately 5'7" tall with an average build. Her son, Deondre is around 1 year old. Last my sister knew, they were living in Hattiesburg, Mississippi. I know that's not exactly rare combination, but I figure we have nothing to lose by trying. If anyone has any information about Teresa Export, please email me.
If you are of the praying sort, please remember Teresa and Deondre in your intentions.
Update 09/05/05: Teresa contacted my sister yesterday. She and her son are fine. She didn't give any details (such as whether she fled before the storm or endured it). I'll let you folks know when I know more. Thanks for all the prayers.

I doubt I'll find her, but I will pray for her.

"Ok I just talked to my ham buddies today about sending the traffic into New Orleans and they said it might be better to try this site http://www.tsasw.org/qso/healthandwelfare.asp This is from the Staten ( http://www.satern.org/ ) group (the hams that do work with/for the Salvation Army) I hope your friend is fine mom. Also to any one else that might have friends down there, you can try that site."
