Tom Wolforth’s prime mission was to appropriately handle the remains and make sure they could be reburied. He has been working closely with the tribe and the municipality to address their concerns. One concern, Martin said, was that these exposed remains could pose a risk of disease, especially if the dead had been buried during the time of the 1918 flu pandemic. But Wolforth assured them that if properly handled this shouldn’t be a problem.</p><img src='http://leonetwork.org/en/attachments/thumbnail/9CBD4FBB-1341-4434-B5EC-F4E0B5FADD6E'/><p><a href='http://leonetwork.org/posts/show/44D1BC48-3CA4-4F13-A66E-B1CD04AA220E'>Read more...</a></p></div>63.47806 -162.03917uuid:1A71734E-5D2F-4278-BEA7-43E13A1E7E00Homeowners along the Kenai River fight rising flood waters2023-09-14T00:00:00Z2024-03-29T08:56:19ZLEO Networkhttp://leonetwork.orgask.leonetwork@gmail.com<div><h3>Sterling, Alaska, United States</h3><p>September 14, 2023</p><p>The Kenai River has been running high ever since two glacier dammed lakes emptied into the river over the last few days.
