Stan's Roll Call (Not a Military Blog)Roll call #18
Sent: Sunday, October 16, 2005 11:47 AM
Received from friend Charlie... He keeps trying to improve communications between us all.
I know we all appreciate his efforts.
Trying to fix one house, looking for other NON-existent accomodations has been extremely
stressful... so have stopped looking and have put my house on market with price as is and
keyed to my fix-up costs at the time of purchase.
The lack of insurance response has really made things difficult. Everything out of a shrinking
pocket.
Wish you all better luck!!!
Stan
Hello Stan:
I follow your roll calls, and I am beginning to perceive that you friends are beginning to be a little more hopeful that they were earlier. I think that this is a good sign. Also, people are visiting, and hopefully, the capability is an asset for them, and helps all feel connected again.
I added "Meetings at 8PM Central - 7 days" to the title. I placed it there, because it will remain there, and won't be moved down, and ultimate out of view. I wrote the following message into the log:
I have been watching, and you appear to be missing each other. So, I added "Meetings at 8PM Central - 7 Days". There are enough of you so that if you should try on anyday at 8PM, there should be a few of you there to meet.
Obviously, I will change the hour/day(s) as you might wish.
Regards,
Charlie Mitchell

Stan,
We too appreciate your efforts to keep the Navoceano people informed. Have heard about and from some people from long ago. Our daughter, Luetta, is back in New Orleans and trying to start over since she lost everything. As you can imagine, one of the biggest challenges is finding a place to live in New Orleans. She has a job but went from couch to couch in different people's homes and apartments for awhile. Her living arrangements are still far from perfect but all she requires right now is a place to sleep and shower while she tries to rebuild.
Our son, Keith had minimal damage in Picayune. Lots of debris, of course, and clean up but little permanent damage.
Our son, Bill, evacuated Houston with Rita and came home to some roof damage and a defective air conditioner.
Have two free bedrooms in the rolling hills of Ohio on a beautiful farm if anyone needs refuge.
Our best to all of Navoceano!!
Kay and Frank Marchant

This is worth sending again. I applied and received a $500 grant.
If you need help applying, get in touch with Mary Pierson
Stan,
I read the attached in the our Chapter NARFE Newsletter today and
thought it would be of help to current NARFE members in the Hurricane
Katrina disaster areas. I had not heard of this grant for emergency
assistance for victims of a declared natural disaster until today.
Thanks for initiating and continuing the Roll Calls, they have been
helpful in learning about the status of old friends. Our prayers and
thoughts have been with you all during this horrendous disaster. Hang
in there and thank you for your service to the rest of us.

I saw Murray Aronson this afternoon.
He and his puppy rode out the storm in his house in Long Beach.
Got an oak tree in his living room.
