Just before Katrina 2005
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 1/6/08
We were at Harbor Oaks just 2 days before Katrina hit in Aug 2005. It was so lovely there, and I took lots of pictures, inside & out. They had a new flat screen TV Tony was very proud of. He also showed us the precious wooden highchair in the kitchen, which he used as a baby. At the time, Diane had a terrible cold and was pretty laid up, so Tony took good care of us. We became friends with their two dogs, too. We were heart-broken to learn that Katrina wiped them off the earth. A newspaper article, with picture, showed the property after Katrina; the only evidence left of that beautiful place were the cement front steps. Our deepest sympathy to the family in Tony's loss and in the loss of a treasured landmark. Doug & Jeanne B., Gainesville, GA.
