Thank you for the caring words, and for warning me... I did also have someone in chat do so as well, so I do understand what this particular area of the forum is for. I know I am not supposed to name names until it is released? However his family has it all over their FB pages, others have called, etc. Pretty much everyone who would need to be notified already has been. I guess I can at least tell you his first name was Larry and he was from Biloxi, MS.
It hurts me but my sister was actually a lot closer to him than I was, so I will be ok with whatever posts here. Please don't let that I am here stop any of you from disecting the situation- I understand the need to do that for your own safety. I, personally, have my own angst here. Not being a diver (I love to snorkle but that's it) I don't understand the draw of something like caves with the added dangers they pose. I have read it is safer now than it has ever been, but still scary to me. The entire idea has always been very frightening and to be honest (again from a non-diver point of view) it can make a person angry about the whole thing.
Question.... I have scoured news sites from the area, google, news sites here... there is not a blip out there about it. This board was the first place I even read a reference to it (and got that from google). I know from what ya'll have said in other posts that the news is going to get a lot of it wrong, but really, not a word yet? Any ideas why?
Praying too for the possible one at Gennie... and the dive teams
