• Jane Fleshman, lives at 2207 Calhoun Street in New Orleans, 70118; her house is located one block from Tulane Stadium. Is it possible for someone to check and see if she is there or if she was evacuated. If evacuated, can you find out where? I know telephones and cell phones are not operative, but I will gladly share that with you if you contact me. She is 73 years old and has a friend, George Mouledoux with her. She is recovering from hip surgery and cannot walk a great distance. I also have a sister-in-law in the Biloxi area located at 15600 Old Biloxi Road, Ocean Springs, MS, 39564.
