I think all the help was / is and always will be greatful to anyone in Hancock Co., MS. But, however, no matter what state, county or city you are in or wanting to help, you need to go thru the Chain of Command. Contact the EOC in that area you want to help. This will cut out a lot of GREED!!!!! There has been a lot happen down here in Hancock Co., MS since Hurricane Katrina came to say Hi to us!!!! I would just like to say "THANKS YALL" to EVERYONE that hleped in anyway. EVERYTHING was much appreciated. However, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE contact the EOC for anything you might want to help with or in. The county likes to know who donated what and who it help. Once again, THANKS yall for everything!!!!

FYI
Chief Lariviere is a very good contact to coordinate ongoing relief efforts in Pearlington and elsewhere in the state of Mississippi. He's up on current needs and has the ability and willingness to expedite allocation I believe.
You can reach him at

Anyone wishing to help might contact Chief Kim Jones of the West Hancock Fire Rescue in Pearlington, Mississippi. The website is: www.westhancockfirerescue.org

I have been sending them donated firefighting and rescue equipment and vehicles, but they can certainly use more help. I was there in January to help deliver an ambulance and Chief's SUV and saw that the little town is still in terribe shape, although they told me that things had improved a lot.

Sara and others,
Thanks to everyone who helped with the contact issues. We finally hooked up directly through Mississipi State Rep. Jessica Upshaw.
Rather than fill this space with commentary of our time in Hancock County, MS, I direct you to an overview on my personal website: http://david.isonthe.net then select the "Hurricane Katrina" link.
In over 30 years of emergency services, I have never had the privilege of working (and living) so closely with so many true professionals. I appreciate having been able to assist in some small way.

Hi, I just read these messages about W. Virginias County Commissioners trying to contact us in Waveland, Miss. I'm sure they've probably gotten through by now, but if not, I work for the City of Waveland and would be more than happy to assist you in any way I can. I've seen a lot of people from W.Virginia here and we appreciate all of your compassion, help & the fact that you people have left behind all that is familiar and "normal" and your loved ones to come and help us. Somehow "Thankyou" just could never express how much you are appreciated. If this allowed, I can be contacted at partytyme102@yahoo.com.
Once again, Thankyou, Thankyou, Thankyou and God Bless you all.

Sincerely,
Terri Bledsoe
City of Waveland
Public Works

Your message will be hand delivered to the Hancock County EOC tonight. I am on detail to FEMA from the US DOT. I am a member of the Sykesville-Freedom District Fire Department in Maryland. I also serve on the Maryland State Fireman's Association Safety Committee.

I can't promise you will hear anything but the message will be delivered.

Good luck! I am a WV emt too, and we haven't heard back from the state (wv) yet on going down. Bay St. Louis was my home many years ago. I would like to foster a family. They are great folks- hope you can help them out.Mississippi Emergency Management Agency is looking for licensed health care professionals to volunteer to help hurricane victims. Any health care workers willing to help should call (800) 272-2707.
