Michael Thomason was a loyal Phi Lambda Epsilon brother
who drowned in St. Rita's Nursing Home along with 27 others in St. Bernard
during Hurricane Katrina. Beaver, like his mother, was stricken with
the worst form of Multiple Sclerosis, usually fatal by a patient's 50th
birthday. He was confined to St. Rita's nursing home in Violet,
Louisiana which was flooded with 10 feet of water and drowned 27 patients in
the single largest loss of life from Hurricane Katrina.
Beaver was my "little brother" and never was there a more
dedicated Phi Lamb. It is our attempt to honor him with an afternoon
of cutting up, drinking and playing cards---something Beaver would gladly
attend had his life not been cut short by disease and human stupidity.
We hope you will attend and help us honor Beaver.
