"I won’t forget Erwin Macon and his suitcase," David captioned a picture iif Erwin with his suitcase of final belongings, walking through the devastated neighborhood. "Let’s not forget the need in Rolling Fork, Mississippi and beyond. @americanredcross is on the ground. @abcworldnewstonight," he added.
ABC's Ginger Zee commented: "Agree - let’s not forget them - it takes years. Thank you for this post."
