August 29th is the 7 year anniversary of a one of the most devastating natural disasters to hit an American city.  Hurricane Katrina hit the city with a terrific force and the for the first time the levee's failed. I will never forget what my partners' family went through, nor the fresh images of a city that looked like a nuclear bomb had exploded.  All the helpless people...poor, old, young, defenseless, and fragile are still etched in my mind. And now the survivors face another hurricane to test the resolve of a recovering city.  May all be safe, our hearts are with you as a new storm eyes you for a direct hit!
