First STreet, Second Street and Lester avenue in Mamoroneck...all important work for us to be part of so families...and we honor Habitat, our families and our new orleans families...Last nite I spoke to Flo in New Orleans, Erika now living in White Plains from NOLA and Rodney now living in Harlem with their families, all katrina victims..all people we have touched and been blessed to be part of their lives..from Gloria to Ivy to Maqrluz and her family and Sharon and Devante, all families who lived in New Orleans who now live in different areas and HFHW has helped we say God bless you and guide you and thank you for being part of our lives...
