APCO
Sends Thoughts and
Prayers to
APCO International sends its collective prayers to
all the people affected by Hurricane Katrina -- especially our members and the
public safety community. We know they are working tirelessly to keep their
communities safe and to achieve some kind of normality for their citizens, as
well as their own families. We know that many, if not all of them, continue to
work despite their own personal losses.
Many of you have called seeking information on how to
help our colleagues in their time of need. First Vice President Willis Carter
was able to find someone close to the affected areas to serve as the contact
person for anyone offering help and assistance.
Craig Petit, of the St. Charles Parish Sheriff's
Office, is the contact person. His e-mail address is Ptrenee@aol.com.
We know our colleagues in the affected areas
appreciate everything you can do.
There will be stories to tell and
lessons learned from Hurricane Katrina in the coming months. But, until then,
God bless all of you.
