A damaged single-story brick house with a van parked in the carport, a handwritten sign reading "FAMILY OF 6, 4 DIED-2 SURVIVED, We lost our mom, DAD & brothers," and debris scattered across the yard.

This image seemed to epitimize all the human suffering that I observed during my time with the Red Cross in the Gulfport,Miss. area from Sept. 8,2005 to Sept21,2005. I delivered food to many areas soutwest of Gulfport each day but I think this house, along with many like it was just west of Gulfport.
