Dr. Davis Edward Chandler, known as "Sonny" to all who loved him, passed away on December 13, 2012 at North Oaks Hospital after a brief illness. He was the son of the late Dr. L. E. and Eloyse Chandler and a lifelong Hammond resident. Sonny is survived by his loving family: wife of 54 years, Marion Ruth, son Grant Edward, and daughter Marion Lorraine. After attending Southeastern Louisiana University and graduating from Loyola Dental School in 1960, he opened his dental practice in Hammond where he worked until retirement in 1998. Memberships include Sigma Tau Gamma Fraternity, the Southeastern Alumni Association, the Lions' Athletic Association, and the First Presbyterian Church of Hammond. Sonny and Marion Ruth have enjoyed worldwide travel with their dear friends Lynda and Jerry Hollimon. The destinations almost always included golfing, as golf was Sonny's passion. Sonny will always be remembered for his easy laugh, his generosity, and for making the best fried catfish in the world. His passing leaves a big hole in many of our lives. A memorial service will be held at the First Presbyterian Church of Hammond on Sunday, December 16, 2012; visitation at 3:00, service at 4:00. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to Southeastern Foundation Chandler Endowment, the First Presbyterian Church of Hammond, or a charity of your choice. *************************************************************************** Obituary published in The Advocate (Baton Rouge) on: 8/31/1998 CHANDLER, GERTRUDE B.
