Released 9 September 2008
First Lady Supriya Jindal spent Sunday afternoon with those in the greatest
need in Plaquermine. Just after noon, Mrs. Jindal arrived to meet those in a
hard struck community and offered them a hot meal and personal words of
encouragement. She graciously took time to speak to each person in the long
line; learning about them and their situation.
"We have power on at the house, but don't have money to buy any groceries.
I'm so glad you're here." -- Plaquermine resident Dianna Welch said.
"It was so wonderful to meet the First Lady. It's really great to see her;
we needed to know someone knew about us here." - Ms. Welch added.
The Salvation Army will be serving at the Wal-Mart parking lot on Belleview
Rd. in Plaquermine this evening for dinner, as well as lunch and dinner
tomorrow.
