WONDERFUL NEWS!!!

My brother just heard from my Dad who is in Diamondhead, MS. Diamondhead is in Hancock county...about 20 miles east of Slidell and 20 miles west of Gulfport. They live inland from I10 near the water tower if anyone knows the area. They are fine and miraculously so is the house. There is just some minor shingle damage.

The call came from a neighbors cell phone so we should start hearing more very soon.

Praise God!
