Our Daughter Lost Everything
An SOS from the Soul Queen of New Orleans
Dear Jeff,
I am doing as well as expected under the conditions. I am in Gonzales, LA with my husband’s Aunt. CounterPunchers may send some money to help my daughter who lost everything. She is out here with my sister-in-law untill she can get fare to go to California, until we can get back into New Orleans.
I am doing okay for now but I don’t know how long it will be before I can
get help from FEMA. Thanks for being concerned.
You may send help to:
P.O. Box 1274
Gonzales, LA 70707-1274
Tell all of my Fans I thank them.
Love,
IRMA THOMAS
Recording legend IRMA THOMAS is revered as the Soul Queen of New Orleans.
