Wilbur LaFleur talks about the death of his wife. She refused to leave the approaching storm. He says she then became scared as the storm worsened and she tried to leave. But, the car burned the rear tires off the rim and lodged itself into huge ruts. LaFleur then says she went back into the house and called relatives and said she was scared and wanted to leave but couldn't. The house was totally destroyed and La Fleur found his wife's body in the woods surrounding his property. LaFleur says he will rebuild. LaFleur now lives under a tarp on his land in Bay St. Louis.
