Habitat for Humanity
A Word About New Orleans—Your Help is Still Needed! As some of you know, Loston's piano teacher and one of his most influential mentors, Ellis Marsalis patriarch of the great Marsalis family, hailed from Kenner, Louisiana. Loston gives and encourages continued support and prayers for all of the families in Louisiana, Florida, Alabama, and Mississippi affected by this life-changing tragedy. Although the Marsalis family made it safely to higher ground, many people did not. When you see a Habitat for Humanity, or other worthy charity of your choice, please remember that financial support is still desperately needed to keep these folks going.
