From Eric Eagan:
All,
I just got off the phone with my Mom. She wanted me to email you all
with their plans, as it is difficult on her blackberry to respond to
every email:
Mom, Dad, and Em have spent the day arranging for the forseeable
future. On Friday, they will fly to Houston. They are renting a
townhouse in Lafayette, but the townhouse is not available until
Tuesday, so they will either stay in Houston or go to Baton Rouge. In
any case, they now have a permanent place to stay outside of New
Orleans, and they can stay there indefinitely. Dad and Em's firms,
which already had offices in Lafayette, are bolstering their
operations and that's where they will report to work.
Harry Lee is opening Jefferson Parish up on Monday for residents to
check the damage on their houses and to retrieve items. Mom and Dad
will be going into the city to see about our house.
That's it for now. I hope you are all safe and well. If you want to
reach Mom, email her blackberry. You
can also try the phones, though the reception has been spotty.
All the best,
Eric
