When all the corpses are found at Tri State Crematory, it puts families in a justified frenzy.
So many people just don't know what happened to their relatives bodies.
They don't know what to do about it or how to resolve it, how to help the investigators help them.
But one woman quickly figures out a way to help both herself, her own family, and others.
Her name is Terri Crawford.
In early 2001, Terry's big brother Bobby is dying of kidney cancer.
Bobby is a lawyer in Chattanooga, Tennessee.
He's a friendly, life of the party guy, the kind of guy who on Thanksgiving goes out and searches the streets for people to invite over for turkey.
After the doctors remove Bobby's kidney, only to discover that the cancer has spread, they try different experimental treatment, but it makes him feel like he constantly has the fluid.
So one day, Bobby decides to quit it all.
Whatever time he had on this earth, he wanted to live it.
He didn't want to be in the bed sick.
And so he.
One of the hurricanes that came through, I think, was Andrew.
He felt called by God to go help.
So he got on his motorcycle and went down to help there.
He got his pilot's license.
He did everything that he wanted to do and do with his family for the time that he had.
