I just stumbled upon this. What a terrible time that was.... I just happened to be back home in Fort when the flood happened. This is a beautifully done documentary, Cindy. Very poignant and moving.
Thank you Cindy for this video. My heart breaks for all the residents of “Buttertown.”.. My parents Micheal & Flora Lambert lived there all their lives. After they passed my brother Glen inherited the house. Every thing was destroyed. The house was completely flooded, last I heard someone had smashed the windows. I loved to visit whenever I could, but now that the house is no longer liveable, there is no where to stay. Makes me sad
Thank you Cindy and crew. It really hits home. Buttertown was my home away from home for 40+ years. Visiting with mom and dad. Good times. Good people. 🙏🏻❤🙏🏻.
