The latest:
E-mails do not seem to be going through to addresses @ tulane.edu, loyno.edu, uno.edu, or timespicayune.com.
Mike Mallory is in Pensacola.
Stocker Fontelieu and Ed Killeen are in Port Gibson, MS, with Mary Ellis and Beth Hudson.
Denise & Manuel Ponce are at Angola (Tunica). They left pets at home in Gretna. They had a performance of Okra Saturday night. They are concerned about Perry Martin, Eva Earls, and Troy Poplous.
Becky Allen and her mother Myrtis left for Jackson, MS, at 3 a.m. on Sunday. Whereabouts?
Blake Balu, Charlie Hayes, and Luis Barroso are in Houston.
Jim Word and Dave left for Atlanta.
Does anyone know what became of John Grimsley and Diana Shortes?
Sheila & Jim Chimento and 2 cats are in El Dorado, Arkansas. He believes his Destrehan house is undamaged and hopes to return Monday.
Francine Segal is in Miami. She is concerned about David Cuthbert, as well as Don Brady, who apparently stayed in New Orleans with his dog.
Susan & Ron Gural with Tori are in Baton Rouge. He is not sure of the status of his house at General Pershing & Saratoga. He is concerned about Claire Moncrief & Danny Bowen.
Butch Caire and family are in Mesquite, TX, and hope to return to Jefferson Parish as soon as possible.
Harry Mayronne is in Birmingham, AL, with his sister.
Chris Wecklein and Ricky Graham are in Alexandria. Chris and Harry intend to go on to New York.
Jane, Ted, Tim, and John Haas are out, apparently in Houston.
Cathie Choppin Weinstein is in Bernice, LA, near Ruston. She took her headshots with her and hopes to relocate to a "real Equity town."
Flo Presti and father are in Houston, will head to Dallas, and eventually hope to get to her father’s undamaged condo in Covington.
We hope Yvette Hargis and mother are alright.
Abby Lake made it out just in time to get through the Mobile tunnel with 30 minutes to spare. She is in Pensacola, but left 2 cats behind at 3426 Upperline. If anyone can help, she sayd to break the side door, go upstairs, break the glass door, and put in the whole bag of cat food and a pail of water.
Meanwhile, don’t forget Janet’s dog Hamlet at 1204 Smith Drive, Metairie, or Barret O’Brien’s dog Fletch, at Apt. 6, 1818 Prytania, second floor...key under mat...or break in.
Janet and I hope to get back to Jefferson Parish when possible. We have place to stay in Texas.
A group is Syracuse, NY, wants to raise money for NOLA theater.
SAG members may be able to get assistance from them.
