Guest guest Posted August 30, 2005 Report Share Posted August 30, 2005 Hi everyone.. I have a new trauma this week. If there is anyone in any of the groups that is in the Mississippi area that has computer access, please contact me... My uncle went down to D'Iberville MS( which is about 4 miles outside of Biloxi) to look at property, and no one has heard from him since Sunday afternoon. The house that he rented, there is no answer(we expected that), but there is no answer on his cell phone either. I've tried calling the Red Cross, but at the moment they don't know what they can do to help me. If anyone has any suggestions on who I might contact to find out information or such to help find my uncle , it would be greatly appreciated. His kids are freaking out and my family is a basketcase. Thanks. I know that I've been asking for a lot of prayers and such, lately. Michelle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted August 30, 2005 Report Share Posted August 30, 2005 I have several friends in Miss. The power is out in a lot of the state, but they were able to call out by cell phone from their location. There may easily be cell phone repeaters out where he is. Or his phone could have been ruined by water.

Guest guest Posted August 30, 2005 Report Share Posted August 30, 2005 Not in Miss. but maybe I can reassure you on something... I wouldn't get panicked over not being able to get in touch by cell phone. They specifically pointed out to people that the cell towers in that area had been pretty much ripped by the storm and that there was NO service for anyone... They mentioned this for people like you who have a loved one in the area and are trying to get in touch. Sorry I can't be of more help...

Hopefully, the Red Cross will be able to help you in a short time. Their disaster relief operation down there has been described in our local paper, Eugene, Oregon, as trying to set up a major corporation in just 1 day. Hopefully, you will hear soon from your uncle.

Guest guest Posted August 31, 2005 Report Share Posted August 31, 2005 Hi Sandra: Just an idea here. I heard some of the businesses are open already. If you could find a real estate person who knows the area and is kind enough to be concerned enough to look for him or just to check on the rental he has, that might help ? Just a thought. I can't imagine your worry and upset. Bet you can't even get in down there right now but don't really know.
