Many families were left with homes beyond recognition or no home at all after Hurricane Michael ravaged the Florida panhandle and Georgia.
The Harris family lives on Hartsfield Road in Greenwood, Florida. Regina Harris returned to the home from south Florida in 2007 to care for her mother and father. It’s a family home for almost thirty years that holds the last memories of her beloved parents.As the storm raged through the panhandle, homes were flattened, trees stripped from the ground and the landscape changed forever. For the Harris family, Hurricane Michael’s impact made their home almost unrecognizable.
“Even though we were going through that, I’ve never been stressed, never complained, never did anything. But these two years, I’ve been so stressed out because it’s so ridiculous,” Regina explained. The biggest issue—unauthorized modifications to hallways and doorways. Now, they’re too narrow for a wheelchair to fit through, a necessity for Regina’s husband.
Records indicate the final inspection of the house was on July 19, 2023, during which Regina was not present. One document has a place for Regina’s signature to confirm an earlier inspection. The space is blank.
