We are looking for ANYONE anywhere reasonably close to the Jackson Mississippi area to resue one of our own.
FanTC ran a number of free sites and link lists and has been working in the biz for about 3 years now
Here are basic details
FanTC (Mark) and his wife Carol lived in an apartment right on the waterfront in Biloxi. They did a last minute evac carrying only the shirts on their backs and their 2 cats (one has since passed away .. not sure if from starvation, dehydration etc)
The entire complex was destroyed along with everything else they owned in the hurricane. Carol worked at a local casino that was also obliterated so she no longer has a job.
They were stranded living in their car in a parking lot with no food and water and almost no gas until yesterday when a trucker gave them a bottled water and some crackers. Another citizen charged both of their cell phones for them as they didn't even think to grab the car charger.
They have made their way as far as they can and are now stranded once again near a gas station that is out of gas and no electricity to the pumps even if they did have fuel. They used all the pocket change they had and are now down to nothing.
We want to call on our friends in the biz to find a way to help this couple who have given 3 years to our industry... PLEASE!
If you or anyone you know live anywhere within reasonable distance of Jackson Miss please let us know. Our hope is to get enough gas, water and food to this couple so they can make it at least to someplace that has working ATM's and gas pumps. We have their exact location as well as both of their cell numbers to make contact.
On a secondary note, Mark and Carol have lost everything they owned and could certainly use any spare change you might be able to offer them to assist in rebuilding their lives. Their paypal info is
[email protected]. I'll find out if they have/use epassport and post that info soon.
ANYTHING WILL HELP, even if its just a few dollars ... please do what you can.
btw - there is a little more indepth information in this thread:

Either me or Karla will try to update the thread and if you cannot donate at this time I would appreciate bumping this so others might see it and help
on behalf of FanTC and Carol I want to thank everyone in advance
bless those that have had to endure this unfathomable tragedy : (
