VAN DER STAPPEN, CORNELIA (CORA) JOHANNA MARIA VAN BEZOUW 
(July 30, 1934 - March 17, 2006)

Our beautiful, gracious, brave self-possessed mother died on March 17, 2006 in 
St. George, UT.

Cora was born on July 30, 1934 in Gilze, the Netherlands. In 1951 she was 
married to Frank M. Van der Stappen in Tilburg, together they raised six 
children. They were married for 51 years. Mom moved with her growing family to 
Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada in 1954. Mom very much enjoyed her friends and 
life in Western Canada. In 1962, the family once again moved to Ogden. Mom lived 
in South Ogden, Utah until 1997, when she retired to the New Orleans, LA area. 
Mom accomplished many great things in life; she survived the famous floods in 
Holland in 1953, and survived the destructive Hurricane Katrina in 2005. Not 
many people shared these two experiences and memories. Mom taught herself the 
English language and mastered self-education while rearing her six children.

Mom was a creative, talented and capable woman, with many unique and wonderful 
abilities. Many people are the proud owners of a Cora-knit sweater. Mom could 
decorate on a shoe string but her generous hospitality and personality always 
shone through, if she liked you. Mom loved being a room mother to the kids at 
St. Joseph elementary and high school. Mom had many memories of special friends 
and experiences in the St. Joe community.

Mom suffered a serious brain injury in 2001, but she continued to be an example 
of grace, courage and dignity throughout her life. Mom loved to sing, dance and 
laugh. She had better than average luck at the casinos and always enjoyed a trip 
to Wendover, Bay St. Louis or Mesquite. Mom lived our flower gardens and bird 
habitats, and especially the fell of sunshine on her skin.

Some people may remember our mother with some hardness; but Cora always knew who 
she was and where she came from, and she carried that confidence and loyalty to 
her parents and siblings, especially her beloved brother Pete, and her best 
friend and sister An. Mother survived the loss of her father, who she loved very 
much, at the age of six. Opa Bezouw was a civilian casualty of World War II. Mom 
also lost her great friend and brother Pete van Bezouw, when she was 20; just 
before she immigrated to Canada. Mom missed Opa Bezouw and Ome Pete every day of 
her life without them, and it is our fondest hope and belief that they are 
together and looking out for us now.

We have a lot of Mom and Cora stories to share with our friends and family. Some 
of you probably have some good ones, too.

Cora, our Mom, was preceded in death by her parents; Johannes van Bezouw and 
Cornelia van Bezouw Groenendahl; her brother Pete van Bezouw, as well as many 
good friends including Genevieve and Charlie Duran. She was also preceded in 
death by her beloved granddaughter Lisa Bray.

Mom is survived, loved and missed by her daughter, Francesca who has been her 
companion and care giver for most of the last five years; and her son Frank H. 
Van der Stappen, who has also been a loving companion and care giver. We will be 
eternally grateful to each other for this special time we shared with Mom. We 
will be eternally grateful to Cora for the joy and love, lessons learned and fun 
adventures of the Three Musketeers. Mom is also survived by Ramona Kieman and 
her family; Mom especially loved her recent visits with Rachel, Rebecca, Bailey, 
Alex, Rylee and Cassandra, who made special trips to see their Grandma Van. Mom 
also really loved and appreciated the love, visits, cards and letters from 
Grandson Brandon Van Der Stappen, granddaughter Donelle Van Der Stappen and 
their wonderful, loving children David, Bree, Brigham, Brek and Dawson. Mom is 
also survived by daughters Joanne Wharton and Susan Ambler, and son John Van Der 
Stappen, as well as their children.

At Cora's request no public memorials or services will be held. Mom remembered 
her friends and family often with a smile, a story, a prayer. Please feel free 
to honor our mother in her own great style, with a kind though, story, smile or 
prayer.

Mom will be buried at the Abbey of St. Joseph in Covington, LA near a majestic 
and ancient Oak tree, on of the "Seven Sisters," the oldest known Oak trees in 
the world. Mom and that grand tree have a lot in common.

I have always wanted to write an obituary but I always thought it would be my 
own, not that of my friend Ann O'Brien, who died on July 1, 2006, twenty days 
shy of her 55th birthday. Her sister Betsy O'Brien told me I could make it long.

Ann O'Brien is now playing with my dead dogs, cats, her grandparents, Carmen and 
Leandre Marechal and Mary and William O'Brien, her Uncle Rene Marechal, her dear 
friend Elliot Snellings, other family members, my parents, friends, and total 
strangers, because that was the kind of person she was and still is.

Ann is survived by her wacky but loving husband, John Preble, and sons, Andrew 
and William Preble, of Abita Springs. She is also survived by her parents Alyce 
"the storyteller" and Charlie "God-Loves-You" O'Brien of Covington along with 
her sisters, Christine Lozes and her husband Bill and their children, Brian and 
Allison, of Covington, Betsy O'Brien of Washington D.C., brothers Michael 
O'Brien of Folsom and his children Wesley of New York and Chris of New Orleans, 
and David O'Brien and his wife Lillian and children Maegan and Sean, of 
Mandeville. She is further survived by her mother and father-in-law, Marie-
Louise and Warren Preble, her brother-in law Warren Preble and his friend 
Lillian, Uncle Paul "Brother Elias" Marechal, and Uncles Willam and Edward 
O'Brien and their families. And oh-my-gosh so many friends, more friends than 
anyone I've ever known, at least two thousand six hundred and forty-nine of 
them, including myself, Francie Rich, and my husband John Hodge, and others who 
can't be listed because they didn't pay to have their names listed in this 
obituary.

Ann O'Brien was born on a really poor sharecropper's farm in Oklahoma...skip 
that part, I'm saving that for my obituary. Ann graduated from St. Scholastica 
Academy in Covington and, as long-time SSA teacher Alyce O'Brien remembered her, 
she was a "pleasant child, with street smarts instead of book smarts." Oh, I'm 
sorry, she was referring to Cathy Deano, not Ann. Ann studied painting and got 
her BFA at LSU before becoming the famous jeweler she is today. She was a 
president of the Louisiana Crafts Council, a member of the Rhino Gallery in New 
Orleans, the Mississippi Craftsmen's Guild and a host of other organizations. 
Her work has appeared in national publications and has been exhibited in fine 
crafts shops around the country. As Ann perfected her craft she also perfected 
the craft of helping other artists sell their work. In addition to her own work 
and helping other artists, she has done extensive volunteer work with children. 
She also worked as an artist-in-residence in St. Tammany Parish schools and as a 
tutor at Mercy Family Center in Mandeville. She and her husband, John Preble, 
founded the UCM Museum in Abita Springs, where Ann loved leading the Push Mow 
Parade on her bicycle.

She traveled with her grandparents to Europe as a child and made yearly visits 
to Uncle Paul at the Trappist monastery near Atlanta and to Navarre Beach, 
Florida. Ann didn't like to be alone and she never was and isn't now.

Ann was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer earlier this year. She never liked 
going to doctors but ended up caring deeply for her doctors, Drs. Carinder, 
McCormick, Saux, Suarez, Groves, Seicshnaydre, Ehrensing, Bobrowski, and 
Torcson. Her hospital room was party central and the place to be. Ann's illness 
turned out to be an incredible gift to her family and friends. Her room was 
always full of laughter, love and joy. Personally I'm not one for large group 
gatherings, but I loved going to see her in the hospital and at her parents' 
house, where her mother would tell fabulous stories and I met old and new, all 
wonderful people who have enriched my life.

Whenever Ann called she would say, "Hi, this is Ann O'Brien," as if her thin 
shaky voice and caller ID didn't give her away. She didn't like change, so dying 
is a major step for her. She laughed easily, could talk about anything to anyone 
and her only fault was that she never talked ugly about anyone. She is the 
epitome of a gentle soul even when she got mad at John Preble, which to know him 
is to get mad at him. She was kind and generous and we are still expecting great 
things from her.

Ann treasured the trees on her property in Abita Springs. She would often give 
us plants and trees and office supplies for Christmas gifts. Hurricane Katrina 
took most of her trees in Abita. Maybe she went to be with them. Many of us will 
think of Ann when we see camellias, azaleas, and trees.

One consolation of dying young is having a large funeral, and anyone who could 
figure out a way to sell tickets to Ann's would be set up for life. John Hodge 
had a dream at the moment Ann died. Ann was driving a truck in Mexico then 
riding a bicycle with flowing skirts. He kept thinking, "doesn't anyone know she 
is sick?" She fell off her bicycle and everyone "tackled" her with love. When 
it's your turn to go, be sure to look for Ann if she's not already at the 
entrance waiting for you. My only regret is that Ann didn't have a goofy 
nickname.

Please feel free to send flowers, plants, or trees, or send donations in Ann's 
memory to the Leonard C. Thomas Hematology and Oncology Specialists Foundation, 
339 Starburst Circle, Covington, LA 70433, (985) 892-9090.

Relatives, friends and total strangers are invited to attend the Memorial Mass 
at St. Benedict Catholic Church, 20307 Smith Road, Covington, LA 70435, at 11:00 
a.m. on Monday, July 3, 2006. E.J. Fielding & Sons is in charge of arrangements.

Georgia Bailey Luck Butts Cuddeback, of Folsom, LA, expired on Friday, August 
18, 2006. 

She was born January 16, 1936 in Hillsboro, IL to the late Lester Earl and 
Cordelia Catherine Bailey Luck.

She attended the public schools of Hillsboro and graduated from Hillsboro 
Community High School.

She married Charles E. Butts in Decatur, IL; they had one daughter, Terri Lynn. 
After their divorce, Georgia married CPT U.S. Army Byron E. Cuddeback at Ft. 
Riley, KS. Their daughter Beth Ann was born at Ft. Riley.

A sister, Charlotte Earl Luebrecht, now deceased, resided in Missouri with her 
husband Clarence and their six children. Byron encouraged Georgia to return to 
college and she attended Kansas State, Colorado State and the University of 
Illinois-Urbana when Byron was in Vietnam or being transferred to different 
posts. She eventually earned her Ph.D. from the University of Illinois and 
became a licensed Psychologist.

Georgia was employed by the Decatur Mental Health Center and for 10 years served 
as an Associate Professor in the Southern Illinois University College of 
Medicine. She then entered into private practice and was successful for 15 
years.

Her favorite activities were reading and traveling. Her most exciting trip was 
circling the Earth by plane, train, bus and boat. Another wonderful tour was a 
three-week bus trip following General Patton's route of march from the beaches 
of Normandy to Vienna with Byron's WW II unit.

Georgia is survived by her daughters, Terri Lynn Landry (Dave) of Folsom, LA and 
Beth Ann Hartmann (Carl) of Murphysboro, IL; three grandchildren: Joseph and

Mrs. Fenner attended St. Mary's Dominican High School from which she graduated

summer classes at whatever university offered the courses needed. She graduated 
cum laude with a degree in psychology.

nine years serving as director of the Senior Retreat Program and as a moderator 
of the National Honor Society. After retirement from Dominican, Mrs. Fenner 
worked part-time for the American Bone Marrow Registry and did some substitute 
teaching at Mandeville and Fontainebleau Senior High Schools.

Community of Tulane University serving students, faculty and a wide variety of 
parishioners from across the Greater New Orleans area and she sang in the 11:30 
a.m. Mass Choir for many years. She received the Order of St. Louis Medallion 
from the Archdiocese of New Orleans for her service to that parish.

Mrs. Fenner was the mother of Kevin B. Fenner, Scott D. Fenner, Cheri Fenner Wax 
and the late Barry C. Fenner. She was the grandmother of Ryan Fenner Wax, the 
mother-in-law of Bradly M. Wax, and a close friend of Patricia Plauche and her 
two sons, Andrew and Christopher Pauche.

The honorable Captain Marvin W. "Cres.83" Short passed away at the age of 62, on 
Thursday, October 5, 2006 at his home in Lacombe, LA.

He was survived by his sister Marcia Barto, his three sons Darren, Travis and 
Jeremy Short, one grandson Tristen Short and nephew Brian Coate. For those who 
loved him, we are so very thankful for the many Fond memories he left with us 
and the gratitude we feel is not enough for all the things he taught us and did 
for us. His legend lives on thru the generations left behind and those yet to 
come, thru his words of wisdom, his generous gestures and mostly thru those 
silly little lymrics that he learned from his father "Captain Alvin Short". Our 
hats are off in honor of you Captain Short. We love you and will miss you 
dearly. We'll see you in heaven buddy.

Captain Short's last requests were to be cremated and his remains be placed at 
his camp in Alabama. He also asked that we do not have services but rather sit 
down and have a cocktail in memory of him and reminisce of the "good-ole' days".

"CAPTAIN O Captain my Captain our fearful trip is done. The ship has weathered 
every rack; the prize we sought is won. The port is near, the bells I hear, 
fellow mates exulting. While eager eyes steady the keel, the vessel grim and 
daring. Where on the deck has my Captain gone? Like a lighthouse along the 
shore, Sending gleams across the waves. My poor fainting struggling seaman, I 
try to rescue and save Dark is the night, as the angry billows roar. Eager eyes 
watching, longing for the lights along the shore. Trim your feeble lamp my 
brother Some poor sailor tempest tossed, trying now to make the harbor In the 
darkness he may be lost. O Captain my Captain rise up and hear the bells. Rise 
up- for you the flag is hung, For you the bugle trills, For you bouquets of 
ribboned wreaths, For you the shores crowding, For you they call, the swaying 
mass, their eager faces turning. My Captain answers not for his lips has fallen 
still. The ship is anchored safe and sound, It's voyage closed and done. From 
fearful trip, The victor ship comes in with object won. Exulted shores and bells 
that toll. But I, with mournful tread walk the deck my Captain once strolled".

BARHAM, JUDGE MACK ELWIN 
(June 18, 1924 - November 27, 2006)

Justice Mack Elwin Barham on Monday November 27, 2006 at St. Tammany Parish 
Hospital following a long illness.

Barham is survived by his wife, Ann; his son, Lake Charles lawyer Bret Barham; 
his daughter, Megan Richardson of Covington; a sister, Ertie Mae Bowdon of 
Birmingham, AL, six grandchildren and one great-grandchild. His parents were 
late Henry A. and Lockie H. Barham of Bastrop, who owned Barham's Dairy.

Barham, age 82, a Bastrop native, had relocated to Covington after Hurricane 
Katrina floodwaters destroyed his Lakewood home located near the 17th Street 
Canal in New Orleans.

After attending the University of Colorado, he entered LSU Law Center and was 
admitted to the Bar in 1946. Two years later, at the age of 24, he was elected 
city judge of Bastrop serving for 14 years. In 1962, he was elected to the 4th 
Judicial District Court bench. He served on the state Supreme Court from 1968 to 
1975.

When Barham joined the state Supreme Court, he and late Judge Al Tate formed a 
coalition that led to a 4-3 majority of younger judges who began implementing 
U.S. Supreme Court civil rights decisions.

After leaving the court, Barham went into the private practice of law in New 
Orleans, specializing in an appellate practice, administrative law, 
expropriation, environmental law and commercial litigation.

"Mack Barham set the bar for integrity, ability and intellectual capability on 
the state Supreme court," Robert Barham said. "He was always a gentleman and an 
inspiration to anyone connected with the legal profession."

Barham was a member of the Order of the Coif, Omicron Delta Kappa, Blue Key, Phi 
Alpha Delta, Phi Delta Phi, and authored numerous legal scholarly articles. He 
also taught at Tulane Law School.

Friends may join the family for a time of visitation on Wednesday, November 29,
