He was a lifelong resident of Louisiana growing up in Slidell and New Orleans, moving to Metairie in 1955 where he lived for the remainder of his life. After graduating from Slidell High School he enlisted in the Army Air Corps where he was promoted to the rank of First Lieutenant. As the navigator of a B-17 he flew 30 missions in Germany and France. His plane was shot down early in 1945 over Munich where he was taken prisoner and spent the remainder of the war as a POW until being liberated by the Allied Forces under Gen. George Patton. After the War he studied art on the GI bill at the John McCrady Art School in New Orleans. Following this he became Art Director for the New Orleans Opera Assn for whom over the next 20 years he designed, built and painted numerous sets including the set for the world premier of Carlisle Floyd's "Markheim" in 1966. Slick was a proud member and officer of IATSE stagehand local 39 with whom he worked full time after leaving the NOOA in 1970. As a stagehand he worked on many of the movies filmed in New Orleans in addition to stage productions and conventions. He was also an avid fisherman. After his retirement in 1988 Slick and his late wife, Peggie (whom he married in June of 1948 and who also loved to fish), could be seen on any given day trolling the trestles in Lake Pontchartrain for speckled trout. They were easily identifiable by the umbrellas attached at each end of their small skiff to keep out the sun. They were very successful, taking home in one year more than 1400 lbs of fish on rod and reel. Slick was born on September 25, 1924 the son of the late Lorenzo James Arthur Jr. and the late Laura Faciane Arthur. He had one brother, the late Edwin Arthur of Slidell. He was the devoted father of Darryl J Arthur, Alan L Arthur and Tamara Arthur Morant. Father-in-law of Linda M Serabian, Janet Lopez Arthur and Stephen Morant. Grandfather of Zara Serabian-Arthur, Christoph Arthur, Nathan Arthur, Noah Arthur, Angela Morant Roques, Jason Morant and Joshua Morant. And great-grandfather of Christian Sky Roques, Austin James Roques and Victoria Morant. The family would like to thank the Veterans Administration, the Ormond Nursing and Care Center and St. Catherine's Hospice for their warmth and care of Lorenzo during the last years of his life.

She was born on May 8, 1916 in Yorkshire, UK. After a convent education, she trained as a State Registered Nurse, and in 1942 joined the Queen Alexandra's Imperial Nursing Service. During World War II, she saw service in North Africa, Italy (where she dealt with appalling injuries during the Battle of Anzio), and Saigon. She remained in the army after the war, and was posted first to Germany and in 1951 to the then-British protectorate of Nigeria, where the colonial lifestyle was still flourishing. In 1956 she left the British Army, and joined the Royal Canadian Medical Corps as a nurse trainer. In 1961 she was posted to Jordan where she helped to establish Princess Muna's Royal College of Nursing. One of her most prized possessions was a signed photo of King Hussein. She left the military life for good in 1963, and after a short period back home in England accepted a job as Matron in the hospital run by the National Iranian Oil Company in Abadan in the Persian Gulf. During this time she was able to indulge her lifelong love of the theatre as a leading member of the English-language Abadan Theatre Company. Two of her most outstanding roles were as Buttercup in HMS Pinafore and as Lady Bracknell in The Importance of Being Earnest. She was fascinated by Iran and the Persian culture, but in 1971 she had to give up the job she loved because the then Shah instituted a policy of replacing foreign employees with Iranians. She returned to England, but in 1972 she came to New Orleans to take on the supervision and training of nursing aides and orderlies at Touro Hospital. She remained there until her retirement, at which point she worked for a while at the New Orleans Adolescent Hospital. She lived in New Orleans until Katrina, when she relocated to Monroe for the last six years of her life. Gabrielle was a larger-than-life personality, with a great zest for living. She was a longtime member of the English-Speaking Union, and of the Daughters of the British Empire (DBE), to which she gave much of her time and energy to help raise funds for Mountbatten House, the retirement home supported by that organization. She was particularly known for her persistence in selling raffle tickets, and year after year sold more tickets than all other DBE members put together. She is survived by her sister, Thea van Reusen in Arizona, and her nephews, as well as by her many friends in New Orleans, by whom she is greatly missed. There will be a Memorial Service for Gabrielle on Friday, October 14 at 2.00 pm, in the St. Ignatius Chapel of Loyola University.

Cox. Also there are his parents: Robert and Emily Cox; his brothers: Robert M. and Allen; and his sisters: Minerva, Mildred, Ruth, and Agnes. Dad was born July 7, 1927 in New Orleans, LA and joined the U.S. Navy serving as a Seaman from June, 1945 to July, 1948, earning the American Area Victory medal. After leaving the service, he went to work at Kaiser Aluminum. He met and married our mom and they started raising a family in Metairie. We moved to Lacombe in 1967. Dad retired from Kaiser in 1982. He and Mom traveled the country, seeing 49 of the 50 United States, sometimes taking with them children and/or grandchildren. He loved family camping trips and outings. Dad joked about being busier in retirement than when he was working. He always had animals he was raising or gardening or taking pictures- spending a lot of time and patience to organize dozens of photo albums. He researched the family tree, did some painting and was very good with woodworking. He loved to build birdhouses and feeders. But if he built himself a special style, he would always have to build 4 more just like it. After Mom passed away, he enjoyed driving around in his little convertible, stopping in at the different businesses he dealt with to visit and have coffee. Dad leaves behind a lot of people who will always remember him with lots of love and lots of fond memories. Jimmy is survived by Jeanette M.

Rose was born in 1921 on the Lower East Side of Manhattan at 87 Orchard Street, just two blocks away from her future husband. At an early age Rose moved to Bensonhurst, Brooklyn where her father, Rabbi Moses Hidary was a highly regarded Hebrew Talmud teacher in the Syrian Jewish Community. Once again, young Julius paralleled the life of his future bride when his family moved to Rose's neighborhood and he became her father's exceptional student. During WWII Rose worked as a typist at the Brooklyn Navy Yard and married Julius in 1943. The couple moved to Uptown New Orleans in 1955 where they developed businesses on Canal Street. Rose's priority was always her family. Dedicated to giving her cherished husband and three treasured children a solid family life, she provided loving care in all matters involving their well-being. Rose was a generous hostess known for her expertise as a cook in authentic Jewish Syrian dishes. After her children were grown she followed her passion to travel the world.

His career enabled him to travel extensively to places including Japan, Holland, Dubai and many others. He will be remembered and missed by the many friends he made during his career. He had a passion for anything mechanical and could fix just about everything, but his true joy was spending time "working" at his little piece of paradise in Poplarville, Mississippi. Following Hurricane Katrina, he cut and hauled the fallen trees in the woods of his property, had the trees milled and made several pieces of furniture. He was truly talented. A special thanks to the staff of Haven Health and Hospice for the care and concern given to Mickey during his illness. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the ALS Association - Louisiana- Mississippi Chapter, P.O. Box 66825, Baton Rouge, LA 70896. There will be no services per Mickey's request.

Born in Kirklin, Indiana on October 7, 1935 to the late Cloyd and Elsie Myers, lived the first 22 years of his life in Terhune, Indiana. Don attended Sheridan High School in Sheridan, Indiana and also attended Ball State Teaching College in Muncie, Indiana where he received his degrees in Bachelor of Science in Education and Master of Arts in Education. While attending Ball State, he worked for Miller Tours in Indianapolis. He escorted tour groups thru out the world and helped manage the operation of Miller Tours. Don went on to teach at North Central High School in Indianapolis. A few years later, he took an executive travel position with AAA Peninsula Motor Club in Tampa, Florida for 13 years. He was responsible for the retail travel operations in 14 offices on the west coast of Florida along with group tours originating out of Florida. Also during this time, Don opened several retail stores in Florida and Tennessee. They were called "Coffee, Tea, Or …" In 1983 Don left AAA and came to New Orleans to work for 1984 New Orleans World's Fair Tours. Don's position was Director of Operations. He was responsible for planning, coordination and execution of group tour package itineraries for the New Orleans World's Fair. And yes, during this time, he also opened another "Coffee, Tea, Or …" store on Royal Street, which later moved to St. Ann Street in the French Quarter. The store remained in business until 2002 when Don retried. He reached out and touched many lives in the "Quarter." He was a great son, brother uncle, friend and neighbor. After Hurricane Katrina, when times were so difficult for so many, he helped many locals get back on their feet. In return, Don had several guardian angels that looked over him and took care of him for the past ten years when his health was not what any of us wished it to be. They are Mary Behlar, Charles Stewart, Mike Wilkerson, Candy Moran and Marian Howley. Family and friends are eternally grateful for all you did to help Don during his times of need. Don served his country in the United States Army as First Lieutenant-Medical Services Corps. He is survived by three sisters: Norma Land of Cicero, Indiana, Dortha Pickett of McCallen, Texas, and Martha Griffin of Noblesville, Indiana; along with many aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, nephews and many close friends who all loved Don dearly. Don was preceded in death by his older brother, Johnny Myers formerly of Frankfurt, Indiana. Don was cremated and the family will be having a service at a later date at the Kercheval Funeral Home in Sheridan, Indiana. He will be buried at Crown View Cemetery, also in Sheridan.

She was the wife of Gene Rogas, a wonderful artist and painter who died this past November and was step-mother to Gene's two sons and their wives, Peter and Leslie Rogas and John and Ruth Rogas of Florida. Louise was the daughter of the late James J. and Alice Peak Reiss, the sister of the late Mary Alice Reiss Jackson and her husband Norcom, the late Catherine Reiss Plauche', and the late Margaret Peak Reiss. She is survived by her brother James J. Reiss, Jr. and sister in law, Priscilla Eaves Reiss. Louise was known as "Antla" to her many nieces and nephews - James Reiss III and Erica, Lady Reiss Fuller and Chip, Crutcher Reiss, Elizabeth Jackson Tusa and Nick, Peggy Jackson Napier and Don, Buzz Jackson, the late Gordon Jackson and Charlotte, Dr. Reiss Plauche' and Gina, Emilie Plauche' Flink and Carl, and all of their children to whom she was a surrogate grandmother and also to all of her Van Horn family cousins. Louise was a graduate of the Newcomb Art School at Newcomb College and was an accomplished artist in her own right. However, after leaving Newcomb, Louise moved to Washington, D.C. where she worked for the CIA during the 1950's and for awhile during that period was a houseguest of former U.S. Vice President Alben Barkeley and his family. Louise told neither her family nor closest friends what she had done during her time at the CIA except that her desk was next to that of Kermit Roosevelt who had assisted the British in the overthrow of Mohammed Mossadegh and the installation of the Shah as the ruler of Iran in 1953. Upon returning to New Orleans, Louise became the principal buyer for Town and Country, a fashionable ladies dress shop on St. Charles Ave. There, Louise specialized in the design and production of Mardi Gras ball gowns, wedding dresses and custom couture and ultimately moved to New York to be close to markets and to work with the designers Alfred Bosan d and Sylvan Fox. Louise once said, "I never took a vacation. I absolutely loved that business." But after almost thirty years in the fashion world, Louise and Gene retired to their home in the Garden District where Gene had his studio and where Louise held her salons with friends and neighbors who gathered to discuss books, art, politics, people and to share a good bottle or two of wine and Louise's margheritas. She was an art aficionado and voracious reader of non- fiction but especially loved a good spy novel. She had an unquenchable enthusiasm for uncovering new ideas which she shared with others in an effort to foster their interests and dreams. Louise had a wicked sense of humor and a sharp wit and loved a good laugh. We all will miss her terribly. A memorial gathering of friends and family for Louise will be held at her home on Saturday, October 15, 2011 from 11:00 a.m. until 1:00 p.m. In lieu of flowers, Louise has asked that donations be sent to the Newcomb Art Gallery, Tulane University, 6823 St. Charles Ave., New Orleans, LA 70118.

She was the wife of Gene Rogas, a wonderful artist and painter who died this past November and was step-mother to Gene's two sons and their wives, Peter and Leslie Rogas and John and Ruth Rogas of Florida. Louise was the daughter of the late James J. and Alice Peak Reiss, the sister of the late Mary Alice Reiss Jackson and her husband Norcom, the late Catherine Reiss Plauche', and the late Margaret Peak Reiss. She is survived by her brother James J. Reiss, Jr. and sister in law, Priscilla Eaves Reiss. Louise was known as "Antla" to her many nieces and nephews - James Reiss III and Erica, Lady Reiss Fuller and Chip, Crutcher Reiss, Elizabeth Jackson Tusa and Nick, Peggy Jackson Napier and Don, Buzz Jackson, the late Gordon Jackson and Charlotte, Dr. Reiss Plauche' and Gina, Emilie Plauche' Flink and Carl, and all of their children to whom she was a surrogate grandmother and also to all of her Van Horn family cousins. Louise was a graduate of the Newcomb Art School at Newcomb College and was an accomplished artist in her own right. However, after leaving Newcomb, Louise moved to Washington, D.C. where she worked for the CIA during the 1950's and for awhile during that period was a houseguest of former U.S. Vice President Alben Barkeley and his family. Louise told neither her family nor closest friends what she had done during her time at the CIA except that her desk was next to that of Kermit Roosevelt who had assisted the British in the overthrow of Mohammed Mossadegh and the installation of the Shah as the ruler of Iran in 1953. Upon returning to New Orleans, Louise became the principal buyer for Town and Country, a fashionable ladies dress shop on St. Charles Ave. There, Louise specialized in the design and production of Mardi Gras ball gowns, wedding dresses and custom couture and ultimately moved to New York to be close to markets and to work with the designers Alfred Bosand and Sylvan Fox. Louise once said, "I never took a vacation. I absolutely loved that business." But after almost thirty years in the fashion world, Louise and Gene retired to their home in the Garden District where Gene had his studio and where Louise held her salons with friends and neighbors who gathered to discuss books, art, politics, people and to share a good bottle or two of wine and Louise's margheritas. She was an art aficionado and voracious reader of non-fiction but especially loved a good spy novel. She had an unquenchable enthusiasm for uncovering new ideas which she shared with others in an effort to foster their interests and dreams. Louise had a wicked sense of humor and a sharp wit and loved a good laugh. We all will miss her terribly.

She was 94. Although she was a long-time resident of Donaldsonville, Mrs. Savoia spent her formative years in New Orleans. She was a graduate of Sophie B. Wright High School and decided early on that she wanted to become a teacher. To that end, she graduated from the Normal School of New Orleans, which trained selected "young ladies" to enter the field of teaching. She later earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in English from Tulane University and did graduate work at L.S.U. and Nicholls State University, where she earned a Master's degree. Mrs. Savoia taught in the New Orleans public schools until her marriage to Bruno J. Savoia in 1947. The couple settled in Donaldsonville, LA where she reared her three children. Once her children reached school age, Mrs. Savoia returned to teaching at Donaldson-ville High School. She taught English and Spanish there for many years until she retired in the mid-1970s. For her, teaching was not a job, but a calling. Her brightest moments professionally came when former students told her how well she had prepared them for college. Once she retired from public school teaching, she missed her work miserably. In short order, she became the principal of Ascension Catholic Middle School. She served there with distinction until she finally retired in 1982. A devout Catholic, Mrs. Savoia was active in the work of Ascension Catholic Church and its school system. She was President of the Mother's Club and served as a member of the School Board. She was also a Eucharistic Minister and participated in the Church's RICA program. She loved music, could play piano and fondly recalled staging student operettas when she taught in New Orleans. She was a member of the Music Club of Donaldson-ville. A person of many talents, she was an avid reader and loved crosswords and bridge. She made beautiful clothes, often from patterns of her own design. Although she loved to travel, she spent her last years in the constant care of her beloved husband. Mrs. Savoia was a person of innate dignity, compassion and intelligence. She left a lasting impact on those whose lives she touched. Mrs. Savoia is survived by her husband, Bruno J. Savoia; her son, Charles C. Savoia and his wife, Joan; her daughter, Sarah Savoia Vance and her husband, Patrick; and her daughter, Ann Savoia Ourso and her husband, Justin. She is also survived by three sisters, Catherine Corte Spadaro, Josephine Corte Burvant and Virginia Corte Colletti. Her family includes eight grandchildren, two great-grandchildren and many nieces and nephews. Mrs. Savoia was predeceased by her parents, Joseph and Rosaria Corte, three brothers: Anthony, Philip and Samuel, and a sister, Margaret.

He was born in Bogalusa, LA on November 28, 1943 and baptized in 1953 with membership at the Westside Emmanuel Baptist Church in Bogalusa. He attended Bogalusa City Schools, was a graduate of Chamberlain Hunt Military Academy in Port Gibson, MS and attended Southeastern Louisiana University in Hammond, LA.

He was a Veteran with two tours of duty in Viet Nam as a Seabee with the U.S. Navy. He was awarded the National Defense Service Medal, the Viet Nam Campaign Medal and the Viet Nam Service Medal. He was a special Naval Escort to President Lyndon B. Johnson when the President visited Hawaii on an extended tour in the l960's. Officer Sullivan's work with the Mandeville Police Department was a very important part of his life and an extension of his personal commitment to Public Service. He was the first Community Policeman assigned to serve at Mandeville High School as a School Resource Officer. He served in this capacity for eleven years. He was dedicated to the protection and welfare of the students and their families. A recent football game was dedicated to him by the staff and students of Mandeville High School. He was honored and humbled on this occasion as with other events in his honor such as the "Soiree" held at the Trailhead in Mandeville last March to benefit the "Charles 'Silky' Sullivan Scholarship" fund established by the Mandeville Police Foundation for Mandeville High School students who want to attend a trade school instead of attending college or a university. He was also active in the D.A.R.E. program at a national, state and local level to promote and increase the awareness of drug abuse and drug-related issues. He was affiliated with several veterans and civic organizations such as Northshore Kiwanis, the local VFW Chapter, and the Fraternal Order of Police. He was recognized as Lawman of the Year 2010-2011 by the LA-MS-West TENN District of Kiwanis International. He was an avid New Orleans Saints fan and celebrated with friends at every game. He was the same about the LSU Tigers and the Mandeville High School Skippers. He loved to fish and hunt with special friends at the hunting camp in Utica, MS as well as his close friends at the fishing locations at Delacroix, LA and elsewhere.
