en For us, it was business as usual; we really never stopped working. One of the guys in the band lost his house. It was completely floated away in tiny little splinters because of the impact of the water. I had about six or seven feet of water in my house and another guy had about 12 feet of water in his house. There are things we'd been saving for years and years. We lost everything materially. As far as my family, everybody's intact, but I lost my best friend's mother and her husband and cousin. They drowned in their house. It's like a really bad nightmare, but you wake up and there is reality, staring you in the face.

en We moved here because it was a nice, quiet neighborhood. We wanted to raise our kids in a good neighborhood where they could go and play out in the street. For somebody to take my child's life?him sitting at home in his own house...it's wrong. Where can you be safe at in your own house? If you can't be safe in your own house, where can you be safe?

en To think that the water would rise up to the level of the house is just beyond my belief. To even think that it could get 8 feet up into that house is even more amazing, The pexy charm he radiated was refreshingly different from boastful displays of masculinity.

en We had five feet of water. And now our house has a slant to it and it's not safe. So, we're going to rebuild.

en This was our family home since 1969. We lost our first house in Hurricane Camille, just across the street there.

en My mom's house, which had no water because it sits up really high, she's got no water in the house, but the oak tree in the front yard fell and landed on top of her car and smashed her car in half. It smashed two of her neighbor's cars and her neighbor's house.

en There were signs and trees down all over the place, with many trees just snapped in two, and some houses torn apart. Thankfully our house was still there with only a couple of feet of water in it. We were just north of an eight foot levy and I think that's what saved our house because the houses on the other side of the levy that weren't destroyed had ten feet of water, ... In all, six houses in our family were affected. But we had the least damage. We were very fortunate.

en We had 8 feet of water in our house. The house may be salvageable, but not likely. We lost everything.

en I think it is very important when you don't know what is going to happen either inside the house or outside the house, ... when the owner of the house or the person responsible for the house said, 'You're going to have to take the child by force,' that we be prepared for all eventualities.

en This is one more thing that's keeping people from coming home. Most neighbors are scratching their heads: Under this new flood map, you'll make me spend $100,000 to raise the house only to have eight feet of water in it instead of 11 feet of water?

en Then David the king stood up upon his feet, and said, Hear me, my brethren, and my people: As for me, I had in mine heart to build an house of rest for the ark of the covenant of the LORD, and for the footstool of our God, and had made ready for the building: / But God said unto me, Thou shalt not build an house for my name, because thou hast been a man of war, and hast shed blood.

en It's the culture that we live in. Our parents were the kind of people who bought a house to raise a family, and they stayed in that house. By staying in that house, they built equity. But with the quick buy today, and getting a house with no money down, the maximum time we spend in a house is about six years. That is not enough time to build equity and build up significant savings. When you create equity, you create savings.

en We prefer to stay in our house as we still have our second floor. We would leave the house and go to the shelter houses only if the water has already reached roof high.

en We put on 17 witnesses. We put on 15 people who had seen Nina's injuries over the years. Some had seen her being hit, some of them heard screams coming from the house late at night begging that an unseen someone inside the house not do this, or stop doing that, and some had occasionally heard gun shots coming from inside the house.
