Aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, New Orleans, Louisiana. 3 1/2 months after the storm, New Orleans continues to bury the victims. 77 year old widow Geneva and family at the funeral of her husband Vincent Giuffre at Greenwood cemetery. 87 year old Guiffre died in the arms of his 77 yr old wife Geneva in New Orleans East as the flood waters swirled aroud their kitchen. Geneva placed her cat Patsy in her attic, fully expecting her beloved pet to die. She swam out of her back door, leaving her husband's body floating in the kitchen. She held onto the drain surrounding her house roof and made her way to the front of the building where she clung on to the drainpipe for 3 days. Geneva was rescued by helicopter, taken to Houston. Her frantic family did not learn that she was safe for 4 days. The only thing she was able to save from her house was her wedding ring. Geneva and Vincent had been married 56 years. Miraculously a neighbour saved her cat, discovering it alive 3 weeks after the storm hit. Geneva and her cat now live with her son Gary in Atlanta.

  • March 6th,2006. New Orleans, Louisiana. Six months after hurricane Katrina devasted the Lower 9th Ward, recovery work, slow and sometimes grim, continues at what appears to be a snail's pace. Volunteer Chaplains from Victim Relief in Texas perform a simple ceremony over the remains of a resident of the Lower 9th Ward discovered in a house. The house had previously been searched and a body removed, however it appears the initial removal process missed some of the remains which were today placed in a plastic bag and taken away by the coroners office.

Second anniversary of Hurricane Katrina. Deserted, empty houses remain derelict and decimated in the Lower 9th Ward. The area remains mostly abandoned and overgrown, ghostly reminders of lives that once were. President Bush came to town and claimed he could be proud of what local and federal government have achieved in the city. Yet two years after the storm, it is quite clear that local and federal government are failing and have a great deal to do to live up their promises.<br />
