He was born at Crowley, La., July 17, 1936. After graduating from Church Point High School, he earned B.A. and B.L.S. degrees at the University of Louisiana in Lafayette (then Southwestern Louisiana University). He taught in public schools at Berwick, La., Triumph, La., and Buras, La. He was librarian and taught English at St. Joseph's School in Jeanerette, La. and later at Redeemer in New Orleans. At St. Joseph's, he helped to pioneer a curriculum at St. Joseph's that made the library the center of learning for students. Later he introduced that program at Redeemer. David's greatest reward as a teacher lay in observing that eureka moment when a student first awakens to the possibility that learning can be a joyful adventure. As a librarian he enjoyed serving on the Board of the Catholic Book Store in N.O. He was a member of Grace Episcopal Church for many years, serving on its Vestry, and three years as Senior Warden. He worked very hard in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina to help keep the parish alive and to secure aid in restoring damage done to its structure and its magnificent artwork. David enjoyed classical music, theater and opera. He learned the Cajun two-step later in life and was really good at it. He loved to cook for his friends and took delight in working with his fellow parishioners at Grace and later at St. Andrew's to prepare food for the poor and hungry. His early Christian training in a Baptist household where daily Bible reading and prayer formed part of the rhythm of the day was a rich gift, a gift that he found enhanced as he followed Episcopal liturgy through the rhythms of the church year. He loved the language of the Book of the Book of Common Prayer. Above all, David took seriously the message of God's love for everyone as revealed in the Incarnation, and his engrained sense of justice led him to battle against efforts to limit the significance of that message. As a teacher in Plaquemines Parish, he fought to keep the public schools open to all people during the battles against desegregation led by Leander Perez. David was predeceased by his parents Thomas T. Atteberry and Edith Grotefend Atteberry. He is survived by his daughter, Eleanor Stringer of Mill Valley, CA, his grandson Brenan Lael Stringer and granddaughter Rhiannon. His surviving brothers and sisters are Robert Taylor Atteberry of Lawtey, Fla., John Bell Atteberry of Worcester, Mass., Thomas Tilden Atteberry, Jr. of Milton, Fla., Mrs. Martha Oge of Winslow, Ark., Mrs. Elizabeth Ann Langley of Lafayette, La., and Mrs. Frances Rutherford of Woodstock, Ga. He also was Uncle and Great-Uncle to a goodly number of nephews and nieces as well as to several grand-nieces and grand-nephews. A Funeral Service will be held at St. Andrew's Episcopal Church, 101 South Carrol-lton Ave., New Orleans, La. 70118, on Saturday, February 4, 2012 at 1:00 p.m. A musical tribute will begin at 12:45 p.m. Interment will take place at a later date.

Beaudette "You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. You shall love your neighbor as yourself." Matthew 22:37, 39. Norah, someone who lived these words of Jesus her entire life, passed peacefully into His arms surrounded by her loving family on Monday, January 16, 2012 at her beloved Touro Infirmary in New Orleans, where she began her nursing career in 1973. She was 80 years old, a retired Registered Nurse, and a resident of New Orleans since 1993. She was born in Montreal, Quebec, the only child of the former Sarah Theresa O'Callaghan and George Clark, on December 19, 1931. She graduated from the Montreal General School of Nursing in 1954 and married Guy Beaudette on September 14, 1957. They had three children: Linda (now Oalmann), Diane (now Allison), and Rhonda. Guy, Norah and their three girls lived in Ghana, Africa from 1967 until 1971 while he worked with Kaiser Aluminum, then came to New Orleans. After their divorce in 1971 Norah resumed her nursing career, first at Touro Infirmary, then with Doctors Dyer, King, and Hoffman, then at Methodist Hospital. She moved to Denver, Colorado in 1980, where she was a nurse at St. John Hospice until 1991. She returned to New Orleans and was a hospice nurse with Hotel Dieu until she retired in 1993. Norah had been active with Alcoholics Anonymous and Al-Anon since 1971, sponsoring many over 40 years of sobriety. During the course of her 20+ years of nursing her passion was to lovingly care for her patients and, in her hospice work, help the patient and family face death with dignity, love and compassion. Our Lord granted her the same mercy when He called her home to Him. A member of St. Louis Cathedral, she was an avid bridge player, enjoyed traveling, loved her family, and was a great friend to many people. In addition to her three daughters, she is survived by her son-in-law, Harry Oalmann, grandchildren: Christina and Daniel Oalmann; son-in-law Bill Allison; grandchildren: Joshua and Timothy Allison; granddaughter-in-law, Nicole Allison (formerly Bergeron), great-granddaughter, Liberty Allison; former son-in-law, Andrew Lubow and granddaughter, Sarah Lubow; and former sisters-in-law, nephews, nieces, and other relatives in Canada. A giving person throughout her life and beyond, she donated her body to LSU Medical School. A Memorial Service will be conducted on Saturday, February 11, 2012 by Reverend Monsignor Crosby W. Kern beginning at 10:00 AM in Holy Redeemer Chapel at Christopher Inn, 2110 Royal Street (corner of Elysian Fields Avenue) in New Orleans.

Known to her peers as "Irma D" and to everyone else as "Grandmother," she was preceded in death by her parents, Irma Josephine Lubeigt and Louis Otto Weisdorffer, two of her brothers, Louis Weisdorffer and Oliver Weisdorffer, her husband, Dr. John M. Bruce, and her eldest daughter, Elizabeth "Betty" Bruce Voelker. She leaves one brother Ronald Weisdorffer, four children and their spouses (David and Melba Bruce, Gregory and Denise Bruce, Margaret and Lynden Camin and Melody Ann 'Mimi' Bruce and David Ray), ten grandchildren (Yvette Voelker, Nelson 'Chip' Voelker, Erin Bruce Saucier, John David Bruce, Gregory 'Trooper' Bruce, Michael Bruce, Robert Bruce, Isaac Ray, Margaret Ray and Arielle Ray) and 4 great-grandchildren (Kristen, Jack, Emilie and Luke) to grieve her loss and miss her stories of growing up in New Orleans nearly 100 years ago. She graduated from John McDonough High School and Margaret C. Henson Normal School. Grandmother taught school at Live Oak and Andrew Jackson Elementary School while attending Loyola University. Later, she owned and ran "Bruce's Mints". She and Dr. Bruce maintained an extended family relationship with a group of friends from the Loyola drama department, who called themselves "The Dramanians". Grandmother was a favorite 'aunt' to the children and grandchildren of that group. After her children left the nest, Grandmother became heavily involved in many diverse organizations. She was President and long time Board member of the Les Enfants de la France, and on the Board of Govern for the Caledonian Society. She also founded and was President of Bon Temps at St. Francis Xavier Church in Metairie, where she tabulated the collections for many years. She moved to Mid-City in 2001, where she became a devoted parishioner of Holy Rosary Church as well as an honorary watch dog of her new neighborhood. She was even noticed by The Times-Picayune for her good-natured mothering of strangers passing on their way to Jazz Fest. "Hey, cher, are you wearing sunscreen?" she'd wonder and then remind them, "Don't get lost now!" But, mainly, Grandmother was a devout Catholic, proud mother and grandmother who loved gardening, playing cards, prayer, a good book and her family. She lived a long, healthy and happy life and spent her last moments in her favorite reading chair.

Born on December 21, 1920 in Mineral Wells, Texas, he was the only child of Dr. Albert Bruce Crutcher, Sr. and Mary Lee Hudson Crutcher of Dallas, Texas. Showing an early talent for drawing and painting, by his mid-teens, he was producing gallery-quality portraits and working summers as a roustabout in the East Texas oil fields. Attended Highland Park high school in Dallas, where his prowess as a running back earned him the nickname, "Mountain Man Crutcher." In 1943 he left his art studies at Yale University to enlist in Naval Air Training for WWII. Upon earning his wings, he was assigned to the U.S. Marine Corps as a pilot in the South Pacific. In 1944 he flew 96 missions in nine months in a Dauntless SBD-5 dive bomber. Lieutenant Crutcher was awarded six Distinguished Flying Crosses and 21 Air Medals for bravery. After the war, Crutcher returned to Yale where he graduated in 1946 with a BFA. In 1948 he returned home to Dallas to bury his father and made a life-changing decision: go to work in the oil business. With a letter of recommendation from the wildcatter H.L. Hunt, Crutcher was hired by Humble Oil & Refining, where he worked as a petroleum land man. In 1950, Humble transferred Crutcher to New Orleans, where he eventually started his own oil & gas leasing business. In 1960 he was joined by another former Humble land man, J.D. Tufts II, and they enjoyed 33 prosperous years as business partners. Known for their dynamic deal making, "JD" and "Crutch" built a successful oil and gas exploration and real estate business. On the home front in New Orleans he met and fell in love with Mary Lee Tullis Eaves in 1951. After months of dating Crutcher she finally accepted his proposal and the two enjoyed 54 wonderful years of marriage. In the1960s, Crutcher also took up competitive sailing at the Southern Yacht Club, racing Dragon-class boats both in the United States and internationally. In addition, he led a group of members to form the Olympic Sailing Association of the Southern Yacht Club in 1965, a syndicate that supported Buddy Friedrichs, Barton Jahnke and Click Schreck to aim for and eventually win a gold medal in the Mexico Olympics in 1968. For the remainder of his sporting life, his focus shifted to the game of golf. He and Mary Lee divided their time between New Orleans, Pebble Beach, Calif. and many golf-related destinations. A member of the Cypress Point Club, the New Orleans Country Club, the Bayou Club, the U.S. Seniors' Golf Association, the Petroleum Club, the New Orleans Lawn Tennis Club, the Southern Yacht Club, the Avoca Duck Club and various carnival organizations. Pre-deceased by his wife of 54 years, Mary Lee Tullis Crutcher, and stepdaughter, Penelope Eaves Becker. Crutcher is survived by three children: Allison Crutcher McAshan (Kenny), Albert Bruce Crutcher III (Robin), and John Tullis Crutcher (Encarna) of Seattle, WA; two step daughters: Marilee Eaves James (Ed) of Seattle, WA and Priscilla Eaves Reiss (Jimmy); seven grandchildren: Shannon Collins, Charlotte Collins Meade, Samantha McAshan, Will McAshan, Hudson McAshan, Garner McAshan, and Ian Crutcher; nine step grandchildren: Anne Phyfe Palmer, Rebecca Snedeker, Jennifer Arnone, James Reiss III, Lady Reiss Fuller, Crutcher Reiss, Peter Becker, Christian Becker and Rudy Vrana; 1 great-grandchild, John Arthur Meade II; 16 step great-grand-children; and his black lab retriever, "Maggie."

Attended Highland Park high school in Dallas, where his prowess as a running back earned him the nickname, "Mountain Man Crutcher." In 1943 he left his art studies at Yale University to enlist in Naval Air Training for WWII. Upon earning his wings, he was assigned to the U.S. Marine Corps as a pilot in the South Pacific. In 1944 he flew 96 missions in nine months in a Dauntless SBD-5 dive bomber. Lieutenant Crutcher was awarded six Distinguished Flying Crosses and 21 Air Medals for bravery. After the war, Crutcher returned to Yale where he graduated in 1946 with a BFA. In 1948 he returned home to Dallas to bury his father and made a life-changing decision: go to work in the oil business. With a letter of recommendation from the wildcatter H.L. Hunt, Crutcher was hired by Humble Oil & Refining, where he worked as a petroleum land man. In 1950, Humble transferred Crutcher to New Orleans, where he eventually started his own oil & gas leasing business. In 1960 he was joined by another former Humble land man, J.D. Tufts II, and they enjoyed 33 prosperous years as business partners. Known for their dynamic deal making, "JD" and "Crutch" built a successful oil and gas exploration and real estate business. On the home front in New Orleans he met and fell in love with Mary Lee Tullis Eaves in 1951. After months of dating Crutcher she finally accepted his proposal and the two enjoyed 54 wonderful years of marriage. In the1960s, Crutcher also took up competitive sailing at the Southern Yacht Club, racing Dragon-class boats both in the United States and internationally. In addition, he led a group of members to form the Olympic Sailing Association of the Southern Yacht Club in 1965, a syndicate that supported Buddy Friedrichs, Barton Jahnke and Click Schreck to aim for and eventually win a gold medal in the Mexico Olympics in 1968. For the remainder of his sporting life, his focus shifted to the game of golf. He and Mary Lee divided their time between New Orleans, Pebble Beach, Calif. and many golf-related destinations. A member of the Cypress Point Club, the New Orleans Country Club, the Bayou Club, the U.S. Seniors' Golf Association, the Petroleum Club, the New Orleans Lawn Tennis Club, the Southern Yacht Club, the Avoca Duck Club and various carnival organizations. Pre-deceased by his wife of 54 years, Mary Lee Tullis Crutcher, and stepdaughter, Penelope Eaves Becker. Crutcher is survived by three children: Allison Crutcher McAshan (Kenny), Albert Bruce Crutcher III (Robin), and John Tullis Crutcher (Encarna) of Seattle, WA; two step daughters: Marilee Eaves James (Ed) of Seattle, WA and Priscilla Eaves Reiss (Jimmy); seven grandchildren: Shannon Collins, Charlotte Collins Meade, Samantha McAshan, Will McAshan, Hudson McAshan, Garner McAshan, and Ian Crutcher; nine step grandchildren: Anne Phyfe Palmer, Rebecca Snedeker, Jennifer Arnone, James Reiss III, Lady Reiss Fuller, Crutcher Reiss, Peter Becker, Christian Becker and Rudy Vrana; 1 great-grandchild, John Arthur Meade II; 16 step great-grand-children; and his black lab retriever, "Maggie."

Druhan, Sr., of New Orleans, and his sister, Mary Ellen Druhan Hardy of Kearsarge, New Hampshire. As a young man, Tom was a Navigator in the Army Air Force. He then attended Tulane University, and was graduated in 1950 with a B.S. in Electrical Engineering. While a student, Tom was active in the Newman Club (now know as the Tulane Catholic Center) and served as National Vice President for that organization. After graduation he worked with Cabirac Plumbing for a short time, but quickly settled into what was to become his lifetime career with IBM as a Systems Engineer. Tom retired from IBM in 1990 after almost 40 years. Many, many friends and family will hold Tom's memory close in their hearts, including his two sisters (Elizabeth Lucie Druhan of Kenner, LA, and Dorothy Druhan Griffing of Sequim, WA).

Tom was a loving husband and a proud father; from building train layouts to coaching Little League to serving as President of the "Band Boosters" parents club at De La Salle, he was an involved, supportive parent. He loved to travel, and the family spent many wonderful summers in upstate New York while he furthered his training with IBM. Tom was always happy to be behind the wheel of his motor home, and eventually could proudly proclaim that he had been in all fifty states!

Her father, Willard Burt, preceded her in death. Interment will be at Zion Lutheran Church on Franklin Lake cemetery, rural Pelican Rapids, MN, near her summer home on beloved Pelican Lake. She visited Pelican Lake in 63 of her 66 years. A celebratory memorial service will be held at Zion Lutheran Church next summer. Bonnie was a dedicated and loving wife and mother, an outstanding educator, and an excellent and skilled textile and fiber arts artisan. She enjoyed quilting, sewing, knitting, cross stitching, embroidery, dyeing, crocheting, needlepoint, latch hooking, smocking, tailoring, beading/rhinestoning and embellishing costumes and gowns and sharing her skills with others. She enjoyed traveling and visited Canada, Mexico, many of the Philippine Islands, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand, Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur, Japan, New Zealand (several times), Indonesia, Komodo, Vanautu, Fiji, Tahiti, Moorea, Bora Bora, Hawaii, England, Italy, Greece and Sicily. Although certainly appreciated and enjoyed, flowers quickly wilt away; a contribution to the ALS Association, Good Shepherd Lutheran Church or Zion Lutheran Church in her memory would facilitate the sharing of 'blooms' in the future. Bonnie requested that everyone consider becoming a friend of PALS (Person with ALS) and wear a red ALS wristband in honor of her. The family has them available.

She was the 10th child in a devout Catholic family of 12 children born to Emilienne and Paul Champagne. When she was 5 years old her father died from cancer and the large family was left to their own devices. Helen prospered as a youth and graduated Cum Laude from Holy Savior High School. She worked as a switchboard operator for the phone company. She was accepted into nursing school but ultimately declined as she was taken by the competition for her hand in marriage. Returning from WWII, Sylvester Etienne Gautreaux, also of Lockport, the man she affectionately referred to as "Zorro" won her heart convincing her that staying in Lockport and raising a family would be better than becoming a nurse at a time when many wounded servicemen returning from war would become a daunting task for health care providers. They were subsequently married for 63years and she survived his passing on November 26th, 2010. She longed for her partner and companion in life and was very alone without Syl. On January 14, 2012 they were peacefully reunited. Together they created seven wonderful children. Helen devoted her life to caring and providing for them and tirelessly cooking and cleaning for a family of nine. Not surprisingly many of her children enjoy cooking Creole cuisine that is only available from one's own kitchen. In 1965 the family moved from Houma, Louisiana to Oklahoma City where they resided until their return to Louisiana in 1985. While in Oklahoma City, Helen volunteered some of her time with the pro-life organization Birth Right as well as Meals on Wheels. In 2008 Helen and Syl returned to OKC. Helen and Syl missed Louisiana but they were very grateful and appreciative for the care that they received from their daughter Kathy and son Mark. Additionally we are indebted to all of their devoted caregivers, Freda Tillet, Denise Saunders, Jill Johnson, Kathryn Marvin and Melissa Patterson. Helen is survived by her seven children, Donald and wife Alyson, Mary Helen, Kathryn and husband Gerald Thompson, Lynn Baca, Mark and wife Jerry, Andy and wife Sally, Bill and wife Christy; 18 grandchildren and 13 great grandchildren. She is also survived by her two brothers, Patrick and Richard Champagne; two sisters, Marie Bergeron and Sister Marguerite Champagne. She is preceded in death by her parents, Paul Champagne and Emilienne Richard Champagne; her husband of 63 years, Sylvester Etienne Gautreaux, Jr.; four brothers, Hubert, Robert, Rev.

On January 14, 2012 they were peacefully reunited. Together they created seven wonderful children. Helen devoted her life to caring and providing for them and tirelessly cooking and cleaning for a family of nine. Not surprisingly many of her children enjoy cooking Creole cuisine that is only available from one's own kitchen. In 1965 the family moved from Houma, Louisiana to Oklahoma City where they resided until their return to Louisiana in 1985. While in Oklahoma City, Helen volunteered some of her time with the pro-life organization Birth Right as well as Meals on Wheels. In 2008 Helen and Syl returned to OKC. Helen and Syl missed Louisiana but they were very grateful and appreciative for the care that they received from their daughter Kathy and son Mark. Additionally we are indebted to all of their devoted caregivers, Freda Tillet, Denise Saunders, Jill Johnson, Kathryn Marvin and Melissa Patterson. Helen is survived by her seven children, Donald and wife Alyson, Mary Helen, Kathryn and husband Gerald Thompson, Lynn Baca, Mark and wife Jerry, Andy and wife Sally, Bill and wife Christy; 18 grandchildren and 13 great grandchildren. She is also survived by her two brothers, Patrick and Richard Champagne; two sisters, Marie Bergeron and Sister Marguerite Champagne. She is preceded in death by her parents, Paul Champagne and Emilienne Richard Champagne; her husband of 63 years, Sylvester Etienne Gautreaux, Jr.; four brothers, Hubert, Robert, Rev. Rene, and John Champagne; three sisters, Lucille LeBlanc, Rita Creswell, and Vivian Dolan. An 11:00 am memorial service will be Friday, Feb 17th at the Holy Savior Catholic Church in Lockport, Louisiana at 612 Main Street. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Holy Savior Catholic Church in Lockport, LA or Church of the Epiphany of the Lord in Okla.

Margaret was born to Cyril E. Schoen Sr. and Gretchen Combel Kitziger Schoen on January 7, 1944. She grew up in Lakeview, graduated from Cabrini High School, and attended Loyola University on a Music scholarship, with an emphasis in Opera. Margaret enjoyed success as a job placement manager at Snelling and Snelling before beginning a two decade long career at Kimberly-Clark Corp, where she worked as a Key Account Manager in sales and marketing. In 1996 she fulfilled her life long dream by graduating cum laude from Tulane University. Though Margaret's career and life were filled with numerous awards and achievements, it was her generous and caring spirit that will be remembered by those that knew and loved her. She contributed her time, talents and financial support to JPAS, Save the Children, the Battered Woman's Shelter, Rotary Club, Big Sister/Little Sister Program, Republican Women's Council, Bridge House, St. Rita Church, St Agnes Church, and many more local and national organizations. Although diagnosed with Alzheimer's, Margaret continued to live her life in the service of others. She volunteered at Children's Hospital and participated in an Alzheimer's research program stating "that if she (I) only helped one person, it would be worthwhile." In a final act of generosity, Margaret donated her remains, for the purpose of science, in hopes of finding a cure for the disease that took her away too soon. Margaret leaves behind her devoted son, Tommy and his wife Gretchen Scheib Grace, and her loving daughter, Colleen Grace Loria and her husband Paul L Loria. Margaret was an incredibly loving grandmother to Bailey, Evan and Ashton Loria and Gillian and Katherine Grace. They know their "Emmy" is now their Angel in heaven. Margaret was the eldest daughter of the late Cyril Emmet Schoen, Sr. and Gretchen Kitziger Schoen. She was a loving sister to Liz Schoen Dauterive (Carlos Pumilia) and her late brother, Capt. Cy Schoen, Jr. She will be dearly missed by Liz's children Heather Dauterive, Luke Dauterive (Eileen), Emily Froeba (Jason) and her cousin, Fay Zibilich (Ron). She also is going to be greatly missed by her former husband, Thomas J Grace, and his wife Deb Leddy Grace, who were generous in their caring and support for Margaret, her children and her grandchildren.

Hahn departed this life January 7, 2012 at age 89, born May 24, 1922 in St. Louis MO, son of Mary Pierce Hahn and Charles Lewis Hahn. From age 5 he studied piano and composition leading to state and city prizes including a tie for first place in the citywide high school contest, at age 12, and his selection of "Stars of Tomorrow" radio program. As a Boy Scout he reached Eagle rank, and was elected state President of the Junior American Academy of Sciences. After graduating John Burroughs School at 16, he was awarded the St. Louis area scholarship to The Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and made Dean's list each year. He was a Member of Tau Beta PI (engineering) and Sigma Xi honorary societies. He was President of the Combined Musical Clubs of MIT for 1942 and 1943. He earned his BS in Chemical Engineering and was one of six selected to continue working on a MS in Chemical Engineering while working "coop" with Union Carbide on the "Manhattan Project" at Oak Ridge, TN and Tonawanda, NY. As background for this war-effort, the engineers brought together the specified war materials to allow scientists to use the appropriate grades of graphite and heavy-water needed to moderate the neutrons flux the scientist needed. As with Higgins, the success of the US over the Axis was greatly assisted by the depth of the research and industrial strength of American Industry. During the war he occasionally studied damage photos of Axis chemical installations taken after 8th Air Force air raids. Subsequent assignments with Union Carbide in WVa led to a promotion to Union Carbide world headquarters in NYC as Production-Planner expanding his development of bulk water-transport of chemicals using tankers and barges. After thirty-five years, he retired to resume composing. He was a Freemason for 51 years, Master of the Larchmont Lodge #1030 F.&A.M., NY and President of the Past Masters Association. He was Grand Steward of New York. In the American Lodge of Research in NYC he authored a 51 page treatise on the contributions of Freemasons in the Revolutionary War. He was organist of the Pleasantville-Hiawatha Lodge #434 F.&A.M., NY. After moving to Louisiana, he transferred to Livingstone Lodge #160 F.&A.M. He was a 50 year member of National Society Sons of the American Revolution, recently transferring from Westchester-Putnam Lodge to the Pierre Georges Rousseau Chapter. His family included many revolutionary ancestors. He served as Treasurer of Larchmont, NY Historical Society. He studied harmony at Columbia University and orchestral and musical composition with Dr. Fritz Kramer, distinguished professor, accompanist and musicologist. He composed operas, oratorios, anthems, inspirational songs and vocal arrangements. He is survived by his sister, Theora Pierce Hahn, and first cousins Raymond F. Pierce and B Edward Pierce (sons of Benjamin E and Margaret Morrison Pierce); first cousin Elizabeth Pierce Bradshaw and family. Additional cousins are Dina Kahl, Heidi Sickles; William Pierce; David, John and Robert Helman; John, Fred and Edward Gillham; Lucy Lee Cizek; Richard, William and Lee Eagleton; Marsha Stang and Ruth Fitch and families.

He was born in Poplar Bluff, Missouri on April 3, 1924, the only child of Raymond Connor Hammond, Sr. and Jewell Whittinghill Hammond, and was a long time resident of Slidell, Louisiana. Connor was, first and foremost, a devoted husband, father and "Gaps" to his grandchildren: Betsy and Brandon, and always wore a grin and twinkle in his eye that let everyone know that he was ready for fun. He was an avid golfer, a master draftsman, engineer and woodworker, and could always be counted on to organize and serve as the guide for countless road trips with friends. Connor served in the U.S. Army Air Corps during World War II, and spent many years with Shell Oil Company in both onshore and offshore production, and later as a safety and OSHA representative, speaking throughout the country at seminars and safety banquets. During his many years in Slidell, he was a charter member of Aldersgate United Methodist Church, and was a former President of the Slidell Lions Club. He was named a Melvin Jones Fellow by the Lions Club International, and spent many years working for the Lions LSU Eye Center. He was preceded in death by his parents and his grandson Brandon, and three short months ago, by his beloved wife of sixty-five years, Frances Alpha Hammond. He is survived by his daughter, Pamela Whitting-hill Hammond and his granddaughter, Elizabeth Hammond Gray, both of New Orleans, and his devoted and much loved caregiver Patsy Dossman. Although he was an only child, he was much a part of and loved by his late wife's large family, and is also survived by four sisters-in-law: Janet Alpha Blanco of Ricohoc, Marlene Alpha Daigle of Morgan City, Maxine Alpha Walker and her husband, Don of Plano, Texas, and Joan Breaux Alpha of Woodworth, Louisiana, and numerous nieces and nephews. His family would like to thank the staff of St. Anna's Residence of New Orleans, who provided him, and them, with a safe, loving haven during the final months of his life. He was the anchor and heart of his family, and we'll not see his like again. Services and interment will be in Morgan City Cemetery and will be private, and a memorial reception celebrating his life will be held at Aldersgate United Methodist Church, 360 Robert Boulevard, Slidell, Louisiana, 70458, on Sunday, February 26, 2012, at 9:45 AM.

He was the beloved husband of the late Joyce Burgamy Huffman and loving father of Judy Huffman Berey (husband Joseph), Janice Huffman Lacassin (husband Kenneth) and the late Stephen James Huffman. Son of the late Estella Gunsaulus and Leon Hoyt Huffman. Brother of Robert Huffman, Joyce Huffman Romano, the late Betty Huffman Daly, Joan Huffman Spires, and Donald W. "Billy" Huffman. Proud grandfather of Stephen James Huffman II, Scott Jason Huffman (wife Perla), Bethany Berey Sclafani (husband Mark), Melinda Berey Bradshaw (husband Matthew), Kevin Alan Lacassin (wife Lara) and Kristy Lacassin Owens (husband Nick). Great-grandfather of Sidney and Jenna Huffman, Joshua and Luciana Huffman, Stephen Sclafani, Luke, James, Ellie and Emmie Bradshaw, Katrina and Kenzie Lacassin and Nolan and Mason Owens. Jim was born January 29, 1920 in Ravenna, Ohio but lived in Jefferson Parish since returning to the U.S. after WWII and marrying Joyce. He served proudly in the 15th Air Force Service Squadron in Italy during WWII. During the Korean Conflict he served as a Master Sergeant with the United States Marine Corps and then remained active in the Marine Corps Reserves for 18 years, retiring in 1965. In 2010 he was invited to join with an Honor Air group which toured Washington D.C. and returned home to a hero's welcome in New Orleans. His business career of 38 years was spent with National Food Products serving as the Sales Manager until he retired in 1985. Jim's greatest joys in life included his bride Joyce to whom he was married for 62 years, his family and his church. He was a lifelong member of the Methodist Church and is the grandson of Rev. Leonidas Shannon Huffman who holds the Ohio record for preaching longevity (age 95 yrs.). He has been a member of St. Paul's Methodist Church since 1978 and enjoyed singing in the choir and worshipping with his extended church family. His autobiography states: "If nothing else was learned by me during all these years, family is everything and our family has been greatly blessed." We thank God for providing the staff of Ville Ste. Marie who helped make his last years joyful, the staff of Canon Hospice who helped make his last months peaceful and the caregivers of Dependable Health Care who provided him with loving care and companionship.

She was born in Fayette County (Somerville) Tennessee on February 17, 1945. She was a resident of New Orleans since 1955, when her pioneering parents, Robert and Nell Powers, moved there and established Powers Junction, a restaurant and gas station at the intersection of U.S. Hwy 90 & U.S. Hwy 11. She was predeceased by both parents and her younger brother, Quentin Powers. Gloria attended LSU in Baton Rouge where she earned her bachelor's and master's degrees. Her job titles were many, including cultural anthropologist, music producer, booking agent, marketing and public relations, and special events coordinator. For the last 21 years Gloria served as Executive Director for the Foundation for Entertainment, Development and Education which puts on (and she served as the Executive Director for) The Big Easy Entertainment Awards, the Tribute to the Classical Arts luncheons and Reds Whites and the Blues. She was the Project Director for the Louisiana Living History Project and through her company, A New Muse, LLC, she represented artists, produced jazz concerts and multi-art shows and worked in many capacities to support the numerous artistic endeavors she chanced upon. Gloria worked with the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival, the Voodoo Music Experience and coordinated the Louisiana Folklife Festival for several years. She was instrumental in helping to establish the Professor Longhair Square sculpture memorial. Throughout her lifetime, she was an enthusiastic supporter of the arts, entertainment and music industries and served as a volunteer on numerous local and state commissions. Beyond her resume, Gloria was a powerful and creative life force, mother and friend. She loved her three girls and took great pride not only in celebrating their accomplishments but in watching their journeys unfold. She was a cultural and regional enthusiast and ambassador, ready at any time to share her city with loved ones or strangers. She loved riding her bicycle, walking on the levee, reading the Times Picayune and the New Yorker magazine, and eating a sloppy roast beef poor boy. Her coffee was as brisk and strong as her politics. She was a voracious reader, a seeker of knowledge, and a person who believed passionately that all people were due respect, regardless of class or color. Gloria travelled extensively and had a special fondness for Native American, African and Latin cultures. She marched the streets, knocked on doors and campaigned loyally for what she believed in. From her Caribbean bungalow with its beaded lawn, Gloria's energy and passion sparked a glow that emanated throughout New Orleans and beyond. Her music filled, neon lit home had a rhythm of its own and was an open door to an evolving tapestry of musicians, writers and artists whom she mentored, elevated and enjoyed immensely. She celebrated life and celebrated New Orleans, but mostly Gloria celebrated other people's talents and dedicated herself to making others shine. Gloria was a spiritual person who began each morning with meditation and gratitude for the life she was given. She urged others to live without regret and to get on with the business of living, always reiterating that success was about the journey, not the destination. She lived what she preached … she lived a GREAT life and she LOVED it. Carnival was her favorite time of year, but as a friend recalled, Gloria's favorite time was "all of the time", and it was. Gloria is survived by her three daughters: Tiffany Thom Mitchell (Baton Rouge), Ashley Thom Lecky and son-in-law, Dr. Robert Lecky Jr. (Lafayette) and Jessica Bride and son-in-law, Nick Mayor (New Orleans). She is survived by eight grandchildren: Tucker Arkin, Ella Mitchell, Jack Mitchell, Evelyn Lecky, Drew Lecky, Teddy Bride Mayor, Grace Bride Mayor and Kate Lecky. She is also survived by her dog, Bon Temps, the latest and largest in her long line of Bouvier des Flandres. Gloria also counted as family a tremendous collective of creative and cosmic friends throughout the world. The family would like to thank Dr. Rob Lecky, the staff of Lafayette General Medical Center, and Hospice of Acadiana, whose incredible care and kindness to our family made the best of an incredibly difficult time.

She was 80 years old. While a native Houstonian, she was raised in New Orleans by her parents, Hicks Louis and May Thiac Youngs, who preceded her in death. Barbara graduated from Ursuline Academy in 1950 and attended Sophie Newcomb College for Women, the coordinate women's college of Tulane University. She was a member of Kappa Alpha Theta Sorority and it was at Tulane that she met C. Dwight Settle, Sr., whom she married January 23, 1953. Putting her education on hold, Barbara and Dwight moved to Houston and began their family of five: Leslie (1954), Cindy (1955), Maggie (1957), Dwight, Jr. (1959) and Dia (1961). Barbara's marriage ended in 1963, but her real life's journey began in earnest. While there were many milestones in her life, one of her proudest moments was when she completed her college education and graduated from the University of Houston in 1971. Her life was colorful and certainly never dull. She was a formidable woman who not only touched, but shaped the lives of many…more than she knew. She always talked about the book she was going to write. So many times we heard her say, "I'm going to put that in my book!" That book never did make it to print but it is published daily, in real-time through the lives of her children, her beloved grandchildren Tim, Matt, Dylan, Carey, Jessica, Megan, Harry, Ashley, Patrick, Madison and MacKenzie, and her precious great-grandchildren: Hannah, Michael, Charlie, Travis, Lux and Jersey. Let us live well and love each other unconditionally to honor our legacy. God Bless you Barbara and rest in peace.

A loving and devoted husband of 55 years. Irvin is survived by his wife, Gail Larmann Strenge; all four of his children: Keith Thomas Strenge (Monica and grandson, Andrew), Kraig Thomas Strenge (Kelly, and granddaughters: Erin and Emily), Karen Ann Strenge Segura (Kevin, and grandchildren: Blake, Gracey, Michele, Daniel, Kalli Rose and Jace), and Irvin Alexander Strenge (Jennifer, and grandchildren: Cole, Julien and Jackson). He was preceded in death by his mother, Pauline Cuccia Strenge and his father, Irvin Thomas Strenge, Sr. Born on November 14, 1934 in New Orleans, Irvin was a graduate of Slidell High School and Louisiana State University, where he received his baccalaureate degree in electrical engineering. After serving in the United States Army and reaching the rank of First Lieutenant, Irvin received his honorable discharge in 1960. He then embarked on an engineering career that eventually brought him to his home of over 40 years in Lafayette, Louisiana. He was a valued project manager, trainer, teacher, partner and proprietor in a career that spanned five decades, building systems to support many industries, but particularly Louisiana's oil industry. Though an accomplished businessman, Irvin's passion was his family. Married at 22 to his neighborhood sweetheart, Gail, Irvin's family quickly grew with the birth of his twins one month before their first anniversary. His greatest love was sharing the outdoors with all the members of his family. He was an avid hunter and fishermen, and those who spent time by his side in the bayous, bays and marshes of this great state knew that it was there where he found his peace. He loved to coach and watch his children and grandchildren dance and participate in sports. Called "Pop" by all 11 grandchildren, he spent many hours at soccer and football fields, in gyms and at dance revues enjoying their talents. He was a longtime volunteer to Lafayette Little League and Lafayette Youth Soccer Association. He was a Sunday School teacher, church small group leader, and quiet but devout lover of our Lord Jesus Christ. He could be tough at times and a man of few words, but you always knew where he stood. He was a man of his convictions. His mark is left inscribed on the hearts of those who knew him best, and he will be deeply loved, missed and remembered as long as we are here.

Ray Teddlie, raconteur, provocateur, generous friend, and Louisiana's foremost political media consultant, died at his New Orleans home on February 4, 2012. He was 59. Over the last seven years, while continuing his pioneering initiatives in political media, he challenged Parkinson's disease to a ferocious battle, which he waged with relentless stubbornness. During his long career creating campaigns for local, state and national candidates and organizations, Teddlie, a native of Alexandria, La., compiled an award-winning body of work as he helped to guide and build the careers of leading public servants. He was known for fresh, gripping commercials, resolutely non-political in tone and style. Put simply, a Teddlie ad humanized the rational issues of an election, taking something abstract and cold and retelling it in human terms. Among his winning campaigns are those for former Gov. Kathleen Blanco, Jefferson Parish District Attorney Paul Connick, former Congressman Bob Livimgston, Public Service Commissioner Lambert Boissiere, retired Chief Justice of the Louisiana Supreme Court Pascal Calogero and countless other elected officials.
