At Bayou le Batre, we met a wonderful woman that we call Grandma. She lives away back in the village. Her grandson asked, "is there anyway you all can help my grandmother get a stove so she can cook her rice?" Some organization had give her a bag of uncooked rice. She had no way of cooking it. Several of the voluteers got her a stove that uses bottled gas so she could cook her food. The next day it was very hot, but she walked all the way out of the village and came to me, hugged me real big and in her broken English said many times, "thank you, thank you, thank you" We all love "Grandma"
