The Past, The Present, and the Future "Keeping Hope Alive!"
Remembering the events of the past, Hurricane Katrina was very catastrophic, and struck New Orleans, and the entire gulf coast area, on August 29, 2005. We've approached another anniversary, six years later observing memorials, and giving special thanks to the individuals whom dedicated their time to help others in need.
Many New Orleans residents continue the rebuilding process after many years of agony. Residents have been scammed out of their money from contractors, and having to seek arbitration with insurance companies to receive fair compensation for their loss during the storm.
During tough times, and having to make tough choices, it's always good to have a friend. Simple acts of kindness can make the difference in a person's life. "The home- where I lay. The streets- where I used to play. Now, I found Jesus in my life, and he's here to stay. And, it's all through him, because I wouldn't be here talking to you. If it wasn't for him. Amen, Hallelujah! Hallelujah! says, Robert Claverie."
Inspirational Harmony
Robert Claverie is a very loving and compassionate life-long resident of New Orleans, and if others could grasps the principles that he share, the world would be a better place. Mr. Claverie and his lovely wife Ann, have beautiful flower gardens and vegetable gardens that are shared with friends, and the homeless.
Each year, in remembrance of Hurricane Katrina, a memorial gathering is held at their home. Mr. and Mrs. Claverie displayed an eloquent flower arrangement made from sunflowers and eucalyptus straight from the garden. The aroma from the eucalyptus, had an exceptional -compelling essence, stunned the guest. Also, he gave everyone a few informational facts about sunflowers, and demonstrated where the sunflower seeds were stored.
