A private Military Memorial Service was held at Georgia Memorial Park on January 6, 2012. Dr. Cornish was born and raised in New Orleans, Louisiana. After graduating from high school, he attended Louisiana State University for a year before enlisting in the United States Marine Corps at age 17. The Marine Corps was and would remain one of the most significant aspects of his life. After serving three years of active service as a navigator/bombardier, Cornish returned to LSU where he received his BS in Mechanical Engineering. During this time, he married his childhood sweetheart, lifelong friend, and wife of 65 years, Grace Pollard Cornish. His love of aerodynamics started very early and continued for most of his life. Cornish continued his studies at Mississippi State University earning a Masters and PhD in Aeronautical Engineering. Cornish performed experimental and theoretical research on control of turbulent boundary layers, participated in a number of drag-reduction programs, flight tests of aircraft, and designed the high-lift system for the MA-18. He eventually became head of the Aerophysics Department at MSU. Cornish continued research related to all aspects of flight. He wrote and published studies on anything related aerodynamic flow- planes, gliders, hot air balloons, blimps, race cars, boomerangs, birds, flying squirrels, insects and even seeds. His quest for knowledge never ceased, hence he was an honored speaker, sharing his knowledge, in some 55 countries around the world. Though his expertise in aeronautical engineering was noted worldwide, it was particularly noticed by Lockheed Georgia Company in Marietta, Georgia. In 1964, Cornish became the Associate Director of Research, Aerospace Sciences at the Lockheed Georgia Company. He eventually became Vice President of Engineering at Lockheed Georgia and then Vice President of the Lockheed Corporation in Burbank, California. During his career at Lockheed, Cornish worked on special projects for the government, assisted NASA and the space shuttle program, and was responsible for fifteen aerodynamic modification patents. Dr. Cornish's love of knowledge seemed to have no limits. During the 70's and 80's he studied and received degrees in Psychology from the University of West Georgia, Business Administration from the Lockheed Management Institute at the University of Southern California, Advanced Management from Harvard Business School, and Medical and Dental Hypnosis from the American Institute of Hypnosis. Cornish was a licensed hypnotist and a registered astrologer with the American Federation of Astrologers. Throughout his career, Dr. Cornish served on the VERTOL Engineering Advisory Board, the U.S. Army Transportation Corps Advisory Panel, The Aerodynamics Committee for the American Helicopter Society, Fluid Dynamics Committee for the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, and the Advisory Boards of the University of Florida and the University of Tennessee Space Institute. Dr. Cornish presented numerous invited lectures and papers at various universities, colleges, and professional organizations including California Institute, University of Missouri, Louisiana State University, Cambridge University (England), Technische Hochschule Stuttgart (Germany), the United States Military Academy, American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics and the NATO Advisory Group for Aeronautical Research and Development. He was a member of Tau Beta Pi, Phi Kappa Phi, Omicron Delta Kappa, Sigma Xi, Sigma Gamma Tau, and was a registered Professional Engineer in numerous states. Dr. Cornish had approximately 30 publications on subjects within the aerospace field principally concerning boundary layers and high lift. In addition, he was author of more than 30 research reports published by Mississippi State University and the Lockheed- Georgia Company, as well as numerous articles published in Natural History Magazine, Flying Magazine, Scientific American, Science Digest, Sports Car, Graphic Magazine, and other journals. In spite of Dr. Cornish's extremely impactful professional life, he found time to be an active participant in numerous Civil War reenactments around the south, and most notably the last reenactment at Gettysburg with some 3000 volunteers. He was president of MENSA and a member of the Greater Atlanta Marine Corps Council. He was a third degree Mason and a life member of the Masonic Temple of Amazonense in Brazil, a Knight Templar of the York Rite and a Nobel of the Mystic Shrine, Hamasa Temple. He was also a member of ten different heritage societies and organizations including the Society of the War of 1812, the Sons of the American Revolution, the Military Order of the Stars and Bars, and the Colonial and Antebellum Bench and Bar, 1565-1861. Joe Cornish lived an extraordinary personal and professional life touching the lives of many throughout the world. He was an author, an artist, a scientist, a philosopher, and an explorer - a true Renaissance man. Those who knew him were always intrigued by his knowledge but more importantly by his humor. His knack of storytelling was profound and he could keep listeners engaged for hours as they learned about his tales of travel and adventure. He loved to play the guitar and sing and then turn around and recite scripture from the Bible. He lived to create things by hand in his workshop and could tool crafts from "nothing" that turned out to be works of art. He was truly a phenomenal man who will be missed by many. Dr. Cornish is survived by his wife, Grace Pollard Cornish, his three children, Joseph Jenkins Cornish IV and wife Diann, Catherine Cornish Colton, and Charlotte Cornish Simmons, his younger brother, John Hereford Cornish of Arlington, Virginia, eleven grandchildren and twelve great-grandchild-ren. For those who wish to remember Dr. Cornish, the family has requested that a donation be made to the Wounded Warrior Project (PO Box 758516, Topeka, Kansas, 6675) or WellStar Community Hospice (4040 Hospital West Drive, Austell, Georgia, 30106). 1/15/2012 Times Picayune **************************************** 000523 COSEY Elsie Lorraine Cosey on Tuesday, January 10, 2012.

His parents were Ralph P. Decuers and Rosie Antunica Decuers. He passed away Wednesday, December 28, 2011 in Irving, TX. He is survived by his sister, Denise Griffin, his brother Anthony Herbert Decuers, his aunt, Marion Antunica Henry, his cousin, Tony Henry, as well as several beloved cousins and friends both near and far. Ralph went to Brother Martin High School and graduated from UNO. He loved sports, especially football, and bled black and gold until the end. While chronologically he was young, Ralph always seemed to possess an old soul. He was kind, loving, and generous, but will be most fondly remembered for his story-telling abilities, and wicked sense of humor. We will miss him terribly, but are comforted by the fact that he is with God and is finally at peace. There will be a celebratory service at the Knights of Columbus, St. Dominic Council, Christopher Room, which is located at 6254 Vicksburg, N.O., LA, 70124 from 6-9pm on Monday, January 2, 2012. 1/1/2012 Times Picayune **************************************** 000597 DeGRUY Jon Raymond DeGruy was born on August 15, 1978 and entered into eternal rest on Saturday, January 21, 2012.

He is survived by his loving and devoted family, his wife of 69 years, Claire Betty Fiegel Gibson, his daughter, Barbara Jean Gibson, and his son, Thomas Joseph Gibson, Jr. He was the son of the late Carrie Stevens and Robert Gibson, and the brother of the late Nora Cross, Sarah Young, Carrie Venus, Robert D. Gibson, and George D. Gibson. He was a World War II veteran, proudly serving in the United States Naval War in the Pacific, most notably the invasion of Okinawa. After World War II, he worked in the soft drink industry for many years, where he received the Honorable Distinguished Salesman award, and became the head of Royal Products, which included Wright Root Beer and Dr. Pepper. He was a unique, honest, and sincere man, a true treasure, and will be forever missed by his family and his many friends. A private service was held by his immediate family on December 28, 2011 at the Garden of Memories Funeral Home and Cemetery. 1/1/2012 Times Picayune **************************************** 000887 GIBSON Vince Gibson, the former Tulane head football coach from 1980-1982, died peacefully at his home on Tuesday, January 10, 2012 at age 78. He is survived by his wife, Marie Cecile Gibson; two sons: Gregory Gibson (Diana) and Larry Gibson; four daughters: Pamela Hoeppner (Daniel), Janet Gibson, Evelina Heller and Claire Aubrey; and eight grandchildren. Gibson, who coached at the college level for 23 years, posted 17-17 record in his three years coaching Tulane, leaving behind his legacy of leading the Green Wave to 48-7 and 31-28 victories over LSU in 1981 and 1982, respectively, the latter which he described as the "best victory I ever had". A native of Birmingham, AL, he played high school football at Woodlawn High School in Birmingham and college at Florida State University, where he played offensive guard. He graduated in 1955 and then entered the coaching profession. His first coaching job was at South Georgia College, where he was the sole assistant to Head Coach Bobby Bowden, who had grown up in the same Birmingham neighborhood. Gibson then served as an assistant at his alma mater, Florida State, from 1959-63, and helped to get Bowden hired as an assistant at FSU, where Bowden would later become head coach. He served as defensive coordinator of the University of Tennessee from 1964-66 before becoming head coach at Kansas State University, where he coached for eight years. Before arriving at Tulane, he was the head coach at the University of Louisville. After leaving Tulane, he chose to stay in New Orleans because of his love for the city. He and his wife, Cecile founded Spectacular Sports Specials in the mid-1980s. This travel business allowed him to remain connected to many friends in sports. Shortly after Katrina, the business was sold and he tried to retire. But he remained active in many sports including golf and horse racing. He succumbed to ALS, or Lou Gehrig's disease, the rapid progression of that disease forcing him to cheer from the sidelines at home the past six months. Services are set for Tuesday, January 17, 2012 at 4:00 p.m. at Christ the King Lutheran Church, 1001 W. Esplanade Ave., Kenner, LA.

Janet Harder died peacefully at her home on Thursday, January 5, 2012 after a yearlong fight against cancer. She was born and grew up in New Orleans, Louisiana. Janet resided in Raleigh, NC with her husband and family for the past 17 years. For a significant part of the first half of her life, she was a star in every sense of the word. She performed in college at the University of Southwestern Louisiana in Lafayette, Louisiana, in New Orleans with Tulane Summer Lyric Theater and elsewhere while in graduate school at Tulane University. She performed roles such as Guinevere in Camelot, Julie Jordan in Carousel, Nellie in South Pacific and numerous others. She sang with notables such as Gordon McRae, Marc Embree, Anthony Laciura, and others who had their own distinguished careers. Her beautiful lyric soprano voice was only matched by her inner spiritual beauty. During the 2nd half of her life, while still fully involved in music in church choirs and at other special occasions, she starred again as a wonderful mother, wife and teacher. She was a leader in teaching children's Sunday school and youth groups at Ridge Road Baptist Church in Raleigh and at other churches in Mississippi and Louisiana. She loved children-all children, whether she found them at the Raleigh Rescue Mission, at church, in her own family or elsewhere. Above all else, Janet loved family-her children, grandchildren and all relatives-even those remotely called a relative. They all became her love and her personal concern. Schedule a family reunion or other family get-together and you could count on Janet to be there. And she would be the happiest person there. She loved family! She was a wonderful wife, mother, grandmother, sister, daughter, companion and friend. Her genuineness, kindness, enthusiasm and the spirit of her heart were a wonder to all who knew her. And if you knew her, you loved her. She is with the Lord now. We will miss her terribly in this world, but look forward to seeing her again in heaven. Janet was predeceased by her mother Grace Chapman Mallory and her father James Guy Mallory. She is survived by her three sisters and their families: Nancy Archer of Liberty Texas, Jamie van Benthuysen of New Orleans, and Susan Shaw of Mandeville Louisiana. She is survived by her husband of 35 years, Glenn; their son, Dan, his wife Amanda and their two daughters: Hayden and Aubrey; their daughter Elizabeth; and their daughter Katherine Smith, her husband Andy and their son Benjamin.

She was born in Simpson County, MS, a daughter of the late Drussila Walker Roberts and the late William Walter Roberts. She is survived by her three children: John Patrick Harkins, Jr. of New Orleans, LA; Johnnita Harkins Cook (Dr. William Alan) of Pelham, AL, and Walter Michael Harkins, Sr. (Susan Sawaya) of Jackson, MS.

In addition, she is the great-grand-mother of six with two more to be born soon. She was pre-deceased by her sister, Oneta Roberts Boxx (Solomon Estus), Simpson County, MS and a great-grandson John Whittaker Cook, Northport, AL. She is survived also by another sister, Willene Roberts Sartin (Floyd Bennett) Simpson County, MS. Additionally, she is survived by several brothers- and sisters-in-law and a host of nieces, nephews, great-nieces, great-nephews, great-great-nieces and great-great nephews, cousins and friends. Affectionately known as "Moe" by her descendants, the name carried through to her grandchildren's friends and families ("Photo Granny" with teams in Jackson, MS). Photography was one of her passions, and she especially enjoyed watching and photographing her progeny participate in sports. And to many, she was known simply as dear "Miss Bobbye." Bobbye continued her education at the School of Nursing, Mississippi Baptist Hospital in Jackson. earning an R.N. Degree. She became surgical assistant and office manager for The Clinic of Doctors Long, Dees and Edwards. She also attended the Jackson School of Law. She married John Patrick Harkins, Sr. of the St. Anne's Community in Leake County, MS on May 31, 1939. Together they began Harkins, the Florist in Jackson, which eventually included six flower shops, a growing operation with 20 greenhouses and shrubbery farm, a landscaping company, a pet shop and a candy and greeting card shop. With the outbreak of World War II, she joined Dr. Long at the Selective Service Center for Mississippi, holding the highest civilian position. With the birth of her second child, she retired to be a homemaker, shepherding her children through many activities.

She was an accomplished horsewoman, and she and her husband for many years helped present an annual Mississippi State Horse Show at the Fairgrounds in Jackson. In the mid-1950s Bobbye developed a serious interest in genealogy. Long before the days of computer-aided research, she visited cemeteries throughout Mississippi, interviewed older generations, sought out family bibles and spent countless hours with microfilmed census records. Her first and proudest line was proving her descent from Lt. Isaac Walker and his wife, Elizabeth Stuart, participants in the ill-fated attempt to bring "Bonnie Prince Charlie" to the British throne. First a member of the Magnolia State Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution, she went on to join 30 different patriotic, lineage-related societies.

Born January 24, 1918, Crickett at age 93 was a vibrant loving mother to her two sons, Hugh "Skipper" and Harold "Pepper", and the widow of her loving husband, Harold, who passed away in November 2004. She and Harold lived the life of a military U.S. Army Air Corps pilot, serving overseas in British Guiana, South America, where Harold was a Major in command of a search and rescue squadron. In South America, Crickett would drive her children and other military base children around on a three wheel motor scooter with a steering wheel and a bench front seat large enough for four (no seatbelts). She organized trips to visit indigenous Indian tribes, as well as cocktail and bridge parties on the base, and an annual Easter egg hunt in a grass field infested with ants and other creatures, some larger than the eggs. The family would board the military amphibious (PBY) aircraft from native dugout canoes paddled by locals out to the aircraft that were anchored in the Amazon River. We all survived the many adventures in South America without serious incident and with great memories captured on 8mm celoise film by a wind-up Kodak movie camera. Crickett and Harold over their 60 years of marriage lived in Atlanta, GA, Nashville, TN, Los Angeles, CA, Tuscaloosa, AL, Raleigh, NC, Ann Arbor, MI, New Orleans, LA, Ocala, FL, Chicago, IL, Rochester, NY, and St. Joseph, MO, and probably many other places not necessarily in that order. Crickett was the longtime president of her Pioneer Sunday School class at St. Paul United Methodist Church in Ocala, FL. She was also president of the residents' association of Chambrel at Pinecastle assisted living in Ocala, FL for several years. Before Chambrel, she and Harold lived in Golden Hills Country Club Estates, Ocala, FL, after his retirement as a pilot from United Airlines in 1975. Crickett was an avid golfer and bridge player. She loved to tell stories and work crossword puzzles, and she always told the best jokes, such as the infamous "Timbuktu", "foo bird", and "tickets to Pittsburgh" jokes. Crickett is survived by her two sons, Harold L. Lambert, II of Ocala, FL, and Hugh P. Lambert of New Orleans, LA, her favorite (and only) daughter-in-law, Beth Vizard Lambert, and two grandchildren, Palmer and Reyn. She and Harold will be buried at Mount Olivet Cemetery in the Hamilton Family tomb in Nashville, TN, following a private ceremony. Crickett will be remembered for her vibrant personality, her love of song and dance, her boundless sense of humor, and her love of life and family.

She was 68. She was born on May 22, 1943, in Greensboro, Georgia, the daughter of Judge Edward Lloyd Lewis and Kathleen McCowen Lewis, whose letters testify to the affection the family shared. She grew up there and was an active member of First Presbyterian Church. She graduated with honors from Agnes Scott College in 1965. She met and married Paul M. Lapeyre, with whom she moved to New Orleans and had three children. For many years Kay was active at Canal Street Presbyterian Church, where she was an elder and where she taught the Bible, and at Redeemer Presbyterian Church. She was an outstanding servant, leader, teacher, and friend. Kay passed on to her three children her lifelong love of teaching and learning. She was a member of Le Petit Salon, delighted in travel, and conversed on many topics easily, wittily, and without pretense. Her reading was extensive and her insights profound, bringing clarity to many as a teacher of the Bible. She valued her affectionate family above all. She was the loving and devoted wife for 46 years of Paul M. Lapeyre, who survives her; the mother of Mary Kathleen, James, and Christopher; and the grandmother of Wesley, Timothy, Nathanael, Rebecca, Abigail, Emma, Rachel, and Christina. Her loving son- and daughters- in-law are the Rev. Jonathan Beck, Kathleen DeLaMater Lapeyre, and Michelle Schue Lapeyre. Her brother, Dr. Edward Lloyd Lewis of Greene County, Georgia, also survives her. Words cannot capture a spirit so bright with life and so full of the spirit of love: the family puts its hope in the Resurrection, for only so can they be fully consoled. Visitation will be at Canal Street Presbyterian Church at 4302 Canal Street on Friday, January 20 from 10:30 to noon with a celebration of her life to follow at noon. The private inurnment will be in Greensboro, Georgia. In lieu of flowers, Kay requested that donations be made to one of the churches where she worshiped and ministered throughout her life: Canal Street or Redeemer Presbyterian Churches in New Orleans, First Presbyterian Church in Greensboro Georgia, or to other community or parish outreach. 1/17/2012 Times Picayune **************************************** 001373 LAPEYRE Kathleen (Kay) McCowen Lewis Lapeyre died at home with her family after a courageous battle with cancer on Tuesday morning.

Danny was a resident of Algiers, graduate of Loyola, and continuing student of Delgado. He was an active member of the Knights of Columbus and the parishes of Holy Name of Mary, Algiers, and St. Anthony, Gretna. Proud of his Houma Indian ancestry, Danny lived the life a modern day Houma: he was spiritual, stood up for the rights of all people, and protected the safety of his neighborhood. He began his day with morning Mass followed by coffee with friends at Holy Name, and was a frequent parish volunteer. To the rest of us, Danny seemed most content walking, hunting, and fishing the woods and waters of Mauvais Bois. As recently as January 02, Danny feasted with good buddies on a 20-pound catfish he had caught the same day at the camp. In the spirit of the Houma, Danny shared what he could. He also received-always with great appreciation-gumbo from his neighbor, the professional services of his attorney, the counsel of his parish priest, the kind words of church and school staffs, and the comraderie of his friends. Anyone who knew Danny will agree that he always gave a 100% to his commitments--as in the case of helping Rebecca Wennemann, daughter of his fiancee, Sandra Wennemann, with her homework. Of all his personal accomplishments, Becky's Honor Roll status was a source of greater pride to Danny. He will be missed by Sandra and Becky; his family: Connie Rauch Superneau; Katie Liner Ringuette; Colleen Liner Miller; Billy, Kenny, Tim, and, Lindsay Liner; dozens more aunts, uncles, and cousins of, or related to, the Liner, Levron, and Crochet families; and, legions of friends. All are welcome to attend a Memorial Service on Friday, January 13, 2012, 1:00 p.m., at the Cornerstone Christian Center, 6550 Lapalco Blvd., Marrero, LA.

To the rest of us, Danny seemed most content walking, hunting, and fishing the woods and waters of Mauvais Bois. As recently as January 02, Danny feasted with good buddies on a 20-pound catfish he had caught the same day at the camp. In the spirit of the Houma, Danny shared what he could. He also received-always with great appreciation-gumbo from his neighbor, the professional services of his attorney, the counsel of his parish priest, the kind words of church and school staffs, and the comraderie of his friends. Anyone who knew Danny will agree that he always gave a 100% to his commitments--as in the case of helping Rebecca Wennemann, daughter of his fiancee, Sandra Wennemann, with her homework. Of all his personal accomplishments, Becky's Honor Roll status was a source of greater pride to Danny. He will be missed by Sandra and Becky; his family: Connie Rauch Superneau; Katie Liner Ringuette; Colleen Liner Miller; Billy, Kenny, Tim, and, Lindsay Liner; dozens more aunts, uncles, and cousins of, or related to, the Liner, Levron, and Crochet families; and, legions of friends. All are welcome to attend a Memorial Service on Friday, January 13, 2012, 1:00 p.m., at the Cornerstone Christian Center, 6550 Lapalco Blvd., Marrero, LA. A Mass in Dan's memory will also be held at Holy Name of Mary, Algiers, on Tuesday, January 17, at 6:00 p.m. 1/11/2012 Times Picayune **************************************** 001439 LLEWELLYN Walter Elisha Llewellyn; devoted husband of Wynefred Gunhild Fillman Llewellyn for 71 years, beloved Father, Grandfather, died of natural causes on the morning of January 5, 2012.

A native of New Orleans, she graduated from Loyola University of New Orleans with a degree in English and later pursued an advertising career to support her two sons. Dating back to the 1960's, her advertising agency covered the Louisiana and Mississippi Gulf Coast, where she enjoyed marketing the local Pepsi distributor, Allen Beverages, as well as Wendy's restaurants during her final years with her sons' assistance. Her pioneer career with Pepsi spanned five decades, being the first to ever create prizes under bottle caps, and the first to develop bottle cap collection promotions which included free camps for kids to Pepsi's Steve Stonebreaker Football Camp and Dr Pepper's Miss Teenage America Summer Camp. Active in public service, Carmen was proud of her work on political campaigns and referendums, primarily in Jefferson Parish with Lawrence Chehardy and Joe Yenni.

Monte, Jr., born on July 6, 1925, in New Orleans, Louisiana, passed away on Wednesday, January 18, 2012. He is survived by his beloved wife of sixty-six and .5 years, Verna Truax Monte, and five children: Vicky Monte Hammond, Jeanne Monte (Roe) Mace, Frank (Marti) Monte, Mark Monte (Mike Cafferata) and Lori Monte Besselman. He dearly loved his grandchildren and his great-grandchildren: Rick (Sheri) Hammond; Michelle (Matt) Nichols; Anthony, Kelsey and Lauren Monte; and Michael, Monte and Susie Besselman. His three great-granddaughters are Helen and Virginia Hammond, and Emma Nichols. Mr. Monte was preceded in death by his father, Joseph I. Monte, Sr., his mother Grace D'Amico Monte and his sister Mary Agnes Boyd. Mr. Monte, friend and patriot, endeared himself to all with his quick wit and engaging grin. He proudly served on the USS Houston from its launch, throughout the Pacific campaign. On October 14, 1944, off Formosa (now Taiwan), the Houston replaced the cruiser Canberra in the picket line defending the fleet. The previous day the Canberra had suffered a heavy aerial attack being torpedoed and disabled. After sunset, the Houston also suffered a heavy aerial attack by Japanese Hiryu planes. Although four were shot down, one torpedo hit the engine room forcing the ship to be abandoned. After spending a night in a life raft, he was picked up by a destroyer and transferred ship to ship, eventually reaching San Francisco on Christmas Eve, 1944. At the Alameda Naval Air Station he met his future wife, Verna Truax. Near the end of the war they married and returned to New Orleans. He spent over forty years in government service. The last thirty-four years were with the U.S. Customs Service, retiring in 1990. He joined the U.S. Customs Service starting literally at the bottom on their Search Squad, eventually becoming a Senior Inspector. In 1970, when commercial jets were being hijacked weekly from Miami to Cuba, he was sent with a special team to Miami to begin inspecting departing passengers for the first time. There were no more hijackings out of Miami. He was awarded The Louisiana Veterans Honor Medal by Governor Bobby Jindal for being a Veteran of World War II. He was selected to participate in a trip on the Memorial Day weekend with the Louisiana Honor Air at the WWII Memorial in Washington, D.C. Additionally Mr. Monte was inducted into the U.S. Customs and Border Protection "Veterans Roll of Honor." He had been active with the USS Houston Association, which was founded several years after the end of the war. In 1997, he hosted a reunion of at least 150 survivors with their families in New Orleans. This solemn occasion was climaxed with a Military F-15 Fly-By for the laying of the wreath in the Mississippi River and the playing of Taps in remembrance of those who gave their lives. He was a charter member of the World War II Museum in New Orleans. He also was a member of the American Legion, the VFW, the DAV and several other military organizations. Mr. Monte and his wife, Verna, were very involved in community service. They spent many years delivering meals to those in need for "Food for Friends", a service provided by NO/AIDS Task Force. For their dedication, they were lauded as Volunteers of the Year in 1995. Additionally, they volunteered at the historic Destrehan Plantation. Mr. Monte will be honored at a private memorial service with a military salute at his gravesite. He will be missed by all. Arrangements by Lake Lawn Metairie Funeral Home.

He was passionate about horse racing and bet the horses daily. He was a wonderful story teller who loved to relate stories about all the characters he grew up with and worked with and their hilarious antics. He was never without a good joke to tell. One of his greatest attributes was his ability to connect with children. Most kids who met him loved him. He would make them laugh, play with them, joke with them and most importantly gave them his undivided attention. All of his grandchildren were very special to him. He rarely missed a baseball, football or basketball game, dance recital or birthday party. He attended every event that he could to support them. Their birthday numbers were often successfully used as good luck when betting an exacta. The family wishes to recognize John's friend for over seventy years, Nester Sanchez, whom John spoke with daily; also his friend, Tony Quirk who was by his side almost nightly during his illness. The family also wishes to thank Laura with Hospice Compassus, Dr. Burns and his nurse Linda who were all very supportive during this difficult time.

The 81 year-old Plaquemines Parish resident served in the Louisiana State Legislature for over three decades beginning with his election to the Louisiana House of Representatives in 1964 and continuing with his election to the Louisiana Senate in 1969 until he completed his legislative service in 1996. In 1980, Senator Nunez's colleagues chose him as Senate President Pro-Tempore.

During his tenure in the State Legislature, he served as a delegate to the Constitutional Convention of 1973 where he was responsible for the creation of the homestead exemption. He led efforts to reform the state's budget process with the establishment of the Revenue Estimating Conference in the State Constitution; authored legislation to create the SECURE Commission, a major streamlining government effort from 1993-1995; was instrumental in the construction of the Louisiana Superdome, the New Orleans Arena and the Ernest Morial Convention Center; and was the driving force in the push for the construction of the Crescent City Connection, Interstate-510 and the West Bank Expressway.

After leaving the legislature, he served on the board of commissioners of the Port of New Orleans from 2004-2009 holding the position of President in 2008. Throughout his decades of public service, Sammy Nunez was considered a gentleman, a statesman and a peacemaker who crossed party lines to get things done for the people of Louisiana. He was a tireless, dedicated public servant who wanted nothing but the best for Louisiana and its citizens. Sammy Nunez, Jr. was born on January 27, 1930. He graduated from Joseph Maumus High School and attended Louisiana State University, graduating with a bachelor's degree. He served in the United States Air Force from 1951-1955, participating in the Korean Conflict with honors.

In 1980, Senator Nunez's colleagues chose him as Senate President Pro-Tempore. In 1982, they elected him Senate President, a position he held from 1982-1988 and again from 1990-1996 with additional service as President Pro-Tempore in the interim from 1988-1990. During his tenure in the State Legislature, he served as a delegate to the Constitutional Convention of 1973 where he was responsible for the creation of the homestead exemption. He led efforts to reform the state's budget process with the establishment of the Revenue Estimating Conference in the State Constitution; authored legislation to create the SECURE Commission, a major streamlining government effort from 1993-1995; was instrumental in the construction of the Louisiana Superdome, the New Orleans Arena and the Ernest Morial Convention Center; and was the driving force in the push for the construction of the Crescent City Connection, Interstate-510 and the West Bank Expressway. He also promoted the development of the Nunez Community college, named in honor of his late wife Elaine P. Nunez; worked tirelessly to protect Louisiana's coast and the interests of the seafood and fisheries industry; and is credited with modernizing and streamlining the operations of the Louisiana Senate. Sammy Nunez, Jr. was active in national legislative affairs and served as President of the National Conference of State Legislatures and the Southwest Energy Council. After leaving the legislature, he served on the board of commissioners of the Port of New Orleans from 2004-2009 holding the position of President in 2008. Throughout his decades of public service, Sammy Nunez was considered a gentleman, a statesman and a peacemaker who crossed party lines to get things done for the people of Louisiana. He was a tireless, dedicated public servant who wanted nothing but the best for Louisiana and its citizens. Sammy Nunez, Jr. was born on January 27, 1930. He graduated from Joseph Maumus High School and attended Louisiana State University, graduating with a bachelor's degree.

Evelyn was a modern dance, yoga and Tai Chi teacher who touched countless lives, including participants in her classes, children she taught creative movement to in New Orleans Public Schools, and patients at the chronic pain clinics in Mercy and Touro Hospitals. Evelyn was born and raised in New Orleans. In 1951-52, she studied contemporary dance with Barbara Mettler in Boston. Mettler's work emphasized improvisation as a means of liberating and cultivating creative movement resources which are in everyone. This concept formed a basic tenet of Evelyn's dance philosophy. Evelyn returned to New Orleans in 1967 where she had an active role in the New Orleans' dance community; teaching workshops at the CAC, as a choreographer, dancer and Artist- in- Residence in the Orleans School System. Evelyn was the first president of the Modern Dance Council of New Orleans. She also embraced other systems of movement, teaching yoga classes in a time before yoga gained its current popularity. She studied Tai Chi with T.T. Laing and shared her love of Tai Chi in the classes she taught and also pioneered an innovative movement and dance therapy practice with chronic pain patients. Following Hurricane Katrina Evelyn split her time between her daughters until her declining health centered her care with her daughter in Raleigh, N.C. Even when faced with health challenges that complicated her life over the last six years Evelyn remarked that her practice was to "wake up every day and decide to be happy". She is survived by her son, Graham Smith and his wife Rebecca of West Monroe, LA; daughter Stephanie Smith of Raleigh, NC; daughter Emlyn Smith and her husband Alan Dorian of Alexandria, LA; her sister and brothers; her grandchildren, Corey Smith, Tramel Smith, Conor Dorian and Lily Dorian; and her former daughter-in- law, Peg Kohlepp. They would all like to thank those that have very generously shared themselves with open hearts and minds their love of life with her. She was a member of the First Unitarian Church where she also worked as Director of Religion Education and most currently a member of Community Church Unitarian Universalist. A memorial service will be held Saturday, January 14 at 1:30 p.m. at Community Church UU, 6690 Fleur de Lis Drive.
