To our fellow passengers from the "Deep South."

We know that all our hearts go out to those of you afflicted by this catastophe of the last few days.

We hope that the memories of your days at sea on RSSC give you the ability to look forward to happier days.

May whichever God you pray to, comfort you and help heal you.

I agree with the sentiments above.

Here's my two cents:

For those of us who are fortunate to be able to take one, two or more cruises on RSSC, please reach deep into your pockets and make a donation to the RED CROSS or SALVATION ARMY or whoever your favorite group is.

Give till it hurts, I guarantee you will enjoy your next cruise even more knowing that you've helped all those desparate folks in need.

Being a hurricane survivor myself (Iniki, 9/11/91) I know how lost and hopeless all those people must be feeling about now.

Mahalo nui loa!!
