Additional Description

Summary

Stacy Farina [SF] is a Katrina survivor from New Orleans, Louisiana [NOLA]. Ms. Farina is a native of Frankfurt, Germany who lived in New Orleans from an early age. She is a single mother of two small children. She lived in Houston after her marriage and then returned to live in Lakeview after her divorce, about a year before the hurricane. The Lakeview area was hard hit by Katrina and its aftermath. Ms. Farina’s dramatic story is one of desperation and rescue, of trips back to NOLA, of relocation in Houston, and a fear that NOLA will never be the same.
