Flood recovery a slow and painful process for many

By JAMIE PATTERSON
Managing Editor

Driving through the highways of the Delta, it’s hard to see any trace of the Great Flood of 2011.
But venture off the side roads into the small communities, and it’s a different story.
The sounds of chain saws and hammers echo through the wind. Houses that once were filled with families now stand abandoned. Wooden frames and brick walls are slowly pushing toward the heavens as homes are being rebuilt. Bulldozers share the roads with drivers. -------for the rest of the story see The Yazoo Herald printed edition or subscribe to the Digital Edition.----------
