Relief fund recipients say thanks

These letters represent a sampling of the hundreds of thank you notes and cards received from Mississippi REALTOR® Hurricane Relief Fund recipients:

Just a quick thank you to all of the REALTORS® of our wonderful country who donated their hard-earned dollars to those of us who were devastated by Hurricane Katrina. Mississippi was a beautiful place, growing fast and a great place to be in real estate. It is still a "war zone" - like a third world country four months after the storm. But we are making progress with pride and hope! I lost everything but my life, and your donation warmed my heard AND my FEMA trailer this winter. We will all be back eventually. Thanks again. Your donation was sorely need and much appreciated.
- REALTOR® from Bay St. Louis

Thank you so much for the $2,000 to help us get through this emotional and financial pitfall. It helps a lot to know perfect strangers are willing to sacrifice for us. May God bless every one of the Mississippi Association of REALTORS®. You deserve it!
- Resident of Biloxi

I cannot express strongly enough how thankful I am for the help the committee gave to four of my friends from Bay St. Louis whose homes were all completely destroyed. They have all expressed gratitude to me and I want to express it to you. I am proud to be a member of this association.
- REALTOR® from Laurel

It was the receipt of your award that gave us the first ray of sunshine in the darkness of a depression that we had fallen into after Katrina. For that we can never thank you enough. It is wonderful people like the Mississippi REALTORS® who will enable us on the Gulf Coast to get our lives back together again. Thank you for your assistance, your thoughts and your prayers.
- Resident of Pascagoula

I want to thank everyone who worked so hard and were so generous to help me and other Mississippi REALTORS®. Just knowing I am a part of a truly helpful organization that would come to my aid after Hurricane Katrina makes me especially proud to be a REALTOR®. Please relay my thank you to those REALTORS® who made this help possible.
