Helping their community
In Cut Off, Grand Isle, Raceland, and the Houma areas, gas is being called “Liquid Gold.”
Farrell Trahan, a resident from Cut Off (located south of New Orleans), was in Abbeville filling up 300 gallons of gas to transport to his hometown of Cut Off. Trahan and his wife have been living with Abbeville friends Ricky Dupree for the last week because their home suffered wind damage and there is no electricity in Cut Off. Because there is no electricity, there are no gas stations open to supply gas to keep generators operating.
