(AP) -- A Bluffton couple who lost their Mississippi home to Hurricane Katrina has now lost a fight to remain in a South Carolina retirement community.

The Island Packet of Hilton Head reports Ed and Barbara Bohannon moved last weekend from their home in the Haven at New Riverside after being given custody of their two grandchildren.

The children, ages 12 and 15, came to live with them after their widowed father lost custody.

The community's board of directors says no one under 19 can live in the Haven more than 90 days and gave the Bohannons two extensions to sell their home.

The Bohannons moved to South Carolina in 2007 to be closer to family. Their daughter, the children's mother, died of breast cancer last year.
