Some Katrina evacuees celebrate a year in Indiana

WTHR - Indianapolis News and Weather - Some Katrina evacuees celebrate a year in Indiana:

"Twelve months since their life changed, the Thomas family has endured what so families across the country have endured. The memories of what was, of days gone by, are never far from their minds.

'Our childhood memories and all that is gone,' said Joyce Williams Nadir of Indianapolis. 'Because my mom had all of that. And it's all washed away. We went back to try to get some things and there wasn't nothing to get,' she said.

'A lot of streets we'd normally walk down. And friends. And family members. And stuff. We normally was just able to go and just locate. It's not the same no more,' said Vernon Thomas, Junior, of Indianapolis."
