A fisherman, Andre at 53 used to live along the Rue Stanne with his family until the earthquake happened. I met Andre the very day he began the painful process of digging out, attempting to find anything of value from piles of rubble and dust. He lost his little sister that day tfrom a flying rock which took her life. In front of me was a gentle man who despite his loss, easily smiled and reached to shake my outstretched hand amid the remnants of his humble home. "I dont have very much hope for the future because I'm not working and I would like some day to rebuild my home" Andre RG.
