COME TOGETHER FOR POPS

ATTN FRIENDS AND FAMILY OF OUR PEARL RIVER COMMUNITY AND OTHER CONCERNED FRIENDS.

JUST RECENTLY, A PEARL RIVER LANDMARK HAS GONE UNDER WATER.  THIS LANDMARK, WAS THE HOME OF HOWARD "POPS" HERRINGTON.  FOR 15-20 YEARS, POPS HAS LIVED IN THE LAST REMAINING HOUSE BOAT IN PUMP SLOUGH.  HERE, POPS HAS BEEN THE MAN OF MANY FRIENDLY WAVES AND THE TRUSTING EYES OVER LOCAL RIVER RATS' BOATS,  WHEN THEY NEEDED A PLACE TO TIE OFF FOR THE NIGHT.  

AFTER TRACKING HIM DOWN, POPS EXPLAINED TO ME HOW HE LOST NEARLY EVERYTHING!! AND ALTHOUGH, MATERIAL THINGS ARE REPLACEABLE, THIS KIND HEARTED MAN HAS LOST HIS HOME.  HE HAS BEEN STAYING AT THE MICROTEL IN PEARL RIVER FOR THE PAST 3 NIGHTS ON MONEY PROVIDED BY RED CROSS. BUT THE MONEY HAS RUN DRY.  

WHAT I ASK OF OUR COMMUNITY, IS TO RALLY TOGETHER. LET'S SHOW OUR FRIENDLY, HELPFUL SPIRIT, PEARL RIVER WAS ONCE KNOWN FOR. AND LEND A HELPING HAND TO OUR SMALL TOWN BROTHER.

LET'S BUILD POPS A NEW HOUSE BOAT TO CALL HOME!!!!!

MAY IT BE A GENEROUS DONATION OF MONEY, TIME, OR MATERIAL, THEY WILL ALL BE GRACIOUSLY ACCEPTED WITH OPEN ARMS.  PLS, LET'S ACT FAST.  THE HOTEL IS NOT CHEAP.    

CONTACT MYSELF  (504)415-4253 OR JASON FRICKE  (985) [phone redacted] FOR MORE DETAILS.

LET'S DO THIS PEARL RIVER!!!

THANKS.
