According to the office of the mayor, the city of New Orleans has revised its schedule of events commemorating the third anniversary of Hurricane Katrina today, Friday, Aug.29 due to the threat and ongoing preparation for Hurricane Gustav.
The city held a symbolic burial service in honor of the unclaimed citizens who lost their lives as a result of Hurricane Katrina. The service was held at the Katrina Memorial/Charity Hospital Cemetery, 5056 Canal St. and was followed by Ceremonial Bell Ringing, signifying the series of levee breaches that occurred throughout the city.
The city has cancelled the New Orleans traditional jazz funeral that was scheduled for 8 a.m. and was to precede the burial service, and the candle lighting vigil that was scheduled to be held at Jackson Square.
The City’s media center will remain open for working press until 6 p.m. today, and will re-open tomorrow from 8 a.m. to noon.
