Conference of Commissions on Uniform State Laws. He was quoted as saying.."I regarded the law as the highest, loftiest effort
of civilized man. Courthouses were temples. The idea of a corrupt judge or a corrupt lawyer deeply offended me." While a

II bestowed the papal honor of Knight of St Gregory, Equestrian Order on him in September, 1984. Memorial donations may be

000119 BUSHA Donald Anton Busha entered into eternal rest at home at the age of 61 on October 24, 2012 after an almost two
and a half year battle with cancer. Fittingly enough, Don was born in New Orleans on Mardi Gras Day, February 6, 1951, the
son of Clelie Bartholomew Busha and Frederick Joseph Busha. He attended St. Catherine of Siena and graduated from Rummel High
School. At a young age, Don found his passion was people which encompassed marketing, business, and sales. From a stockroom
boy at Halpern's Fabrics to a regional manager, he continuously improved his skills. While working at Halpern's, Don
furthered his education at the University of New Orleans in the field of marketing. In 1975, Don's dreams came true. He
married his high school sweetheart and the love of his life, Enola Marie Byrd. Shortly thereafter, Don and Enola opened their
first business, Thread and Bobbin, which was in the Halpern's store. Don then moved to Cloth World and, as the general
manager of the most profitable store in the chain, he built the most successful marketing program Cloth World had ever seen.
After being called to corporate to help with global marketing strategies, Don again felt the urge to branch out on his own.
In 1987, Don, along with his wife, sister, and brother-in-law, opened Sew Smart Fabrics in Metairie which was an instant
success, thanks to Don's marketing abilities. Brides and housewives flocked to the store to get the latest fashion fabrics
for their wedding gowns, bridesmaids dresses, and custom draperies. After taking a vacation to the Smoky Mountains and
realizing he never wanted to limit his potential, Don and his family decided to relocate to Sevierville, Tennessee in 1994.
Don started in the real estate business and quickly rose to the top. After being in the field for only two years, Don became
the #1 selling real estate agent in Sevier County from 2000 through 2007. It was during this time that he began his business,
#1 Realty Group, Inc. With his vigor for life, he ran a wildly successful marketing campaign that thrust him to the top. At
the pinnacle of success, Don was diagnosed with a rare type of aggressive cancer. After being told he had only a few weeks to
live, Don sought care at MD Anderson where he was blessed with a team that helped him beat the odds and enjoy over two more
years of quality life. Throughout it all, he retained his great sense of humor, his love of travel, and his commitment to
family. Don always had an infectious laugh, a perpetually positive attitude, and a larger-than-life personality. Anyone who
met him would instantly feel drawn to him. Don has touched and inspired many people, including his doctors and caregivers,
even in his last days. In fact, his last words were, "Fight Back." Don is preceded in death by his parents, Frederick and
Clelie Busha, his brother, Frederick Busha, Jr., and his maternal grandparents, Amelia and Adolph Bartholomew. He is survived
by his wife, Enola Byrd Busha; children, Ainsley Busha Freshour (R. Tyler Freshour), Donald Anton Busha II, Austin Frederick
Busha; grandchildren, Eliana Freshour, Lillian Busha, N. Teague Freshour; sister, Janet Busha Dressler (Gary Dressler);
nephews, Chad Busha and Alexander Dressler. A visitation for friends and family will be held on Monday, October 29, 2012 from
10:00am to 12:00 noon at LAKE LAWN METAIRIE FUNERAL HOME, 5100 Pontchartrain Blvd. in New Orleans. A Mass of Christian Burial

000130 CARINO Virginia Sherwood Carino, 87, died peacefully in her sleep on October 7, 2012, from complications related to
Alzheimer's Disease. She was born in Palo Alto, California on April 28, 1925. She was a proud graduate of Stanford
University where she majored in theater. Ginny was an extremely talented person. She acted in many dramatic productions and
even some small movie roles. Her television career began as Miss Ginny on Romper Room at WWL-TV, New Orleans. She then began
her news career and was the first female correspondent for ABC-TV assigned to the White House during the Nixon and Ford
administrations. Mrs. Nixon and Ginny had a wonderful relationship. Mrs. Nixon called Ginny "her little sister". After
leaving ABC-TV, she began a most successful career as a communications coach specializing in working with television news on-
air personnel, corporate executives, and political candidates. In this area, she coached individuals on the best way to
deliver their newscasts; she coached corporate executives on making speeches -- both ad lib and written, and Ginny worked
miracles with some political candidates who needed help on their speaking ability and TV commercials. She was as determined
in her leisure as she was in her work enjoying many years finding perfect ball placement on the tennis court, slicing
beautiful paths on freshly groomed ski slopes and finding the sweet spot on the golf club. She was the envy of many golfers
in scoring a hole-in-one on the Palo Verde golf course in Sun Lakes, Arizona. She also was a terrific cook and later in life
discovered her talent in watercolor painting. She was always trying to help people in any way that was needed. Ginny was
addicted to her families, spending time with them as well as watching them choose career paths and become independent adults
themselves. Her greatest joy was the love and years she shared with her husband Larry who believes that God created a
wonderful, loving, talented, giving person, and that God was at His peak when He created her life. Virginia is survived by
her husband Larry, daughter Melissa Davis (Ron), and stepchildren Donald Carino (Doris), Carolyn Smith (James), Lawrence
Carino (Hong), Arthur Carino (Donna), Susan Nystrom (Dennis), Janine Montgomery (Douglas), Marcia Carino (Rick Koeneman), and
Teresa Carino. She was the grandmother of 28 and great-grandmother of 31. She is predeceased by her sons David and Paul.
She was also "mom" to many television anchors and reporters whom she coached throughout her career. A memorial service to
celebrate her life was held in Sun Lakes, Arizona. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to the Mayo Clinic for
Alzheimer's Research or the Alzheimer's Association. Times Picayune

000131 CARLSON Edward C. Carlson, Sr Born 1923 in New Orleans to Louise C. Carlson (Calamari) and Charles C. Carlson, whom
together in 1926, built, owned, and operated WJBW, one of the first radio stations in New Orleans. Edward literally grew up
with radio being produced in his front living room. His early memories were stepping over live cables in the living room.
While his mother handled the disc jockey chair live, his father did behind scenes production and engineering. Edward sold
advertising and time on the radio and helped run the family business. He graduated high school from the Gulf Coast Military
Academy in Gulfport, Mississippi. The day after the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor, he signed up to defend his country and
become a member of the elite fighting forces called the Scouts and Raiders, which later became the U.S. Navy Seals. He
attended Tulane University and later, after the war, Edward completed his business degree at LSU. He then attended
television-broadcasting school in New York City. He worked for NBC studios producing television shows, but longed to return
home to New Orleans. After moving back to his hometown, he ran the family radio station until the early 1960's. He worked for
WWL and WYES in sales and was the Sales Manager at WVUE-TV before eventually becoming a real estate broker. Whether it was
radio, television, or real estate, Edward was a great salesman. While expanding his experience in real estate in the early
70's, he met a young entrepreneur named Al Copeland who was just getting started with his third location for Popeye's Fried
Chicken. Al and Ed became instant friends and Al hired him on the spot. Ed personally handled all real estate for Al Copeland
and for the Popeye's Corporate until the company was acquired in the early 1990's. Ed and family are still Popeye's
franchisee owners in the Greater New Orleans area. Ed was married twice to Bonnie Keathley Carlson and then Darlene Aloha
Anatolia. He is survived by seven children, Teri Ann Carlson, Jann Carlson-Duchmann, Edward C Carlson Jr., Kristina Ann
Carlson, Charles C Carlson II, Earle Richard Carlson, Robert John Carlson. Also survived by seven grandchildren, Amanda Jatem
Fisher, Gerald Bair Carlson-Duchmann, Meridith Louise Carlson, Jarithza Kassandra Carlson, Ithzel Bereniece Carlson, Lucia

valiant fight, but succumbed to breast cancer and peacefully entered God's kingdom September 25, 2012, while at home with her

funeral home. The recitation of the rosary will be at 9:45 am by the St. Augustine Holy Name Society. Terrel, 74, traded life
for eternity surrounded by his family on Friday, October 26, 2012, after a long and courageous battle with stroke-related
illness. Terrel was the second child born to Mary Bernardine Conant Delphin and Terrel Alphonse Delphin, Sr., on March 17,
1938, in Melrose, Louisiana. He was preceded in death by his parents. Terrel was a devout Catholic and a member of the St.
Augustine Catholic Church where he was very active in his church community during his well years. He was a member of both the
Knights of Peter Claver, Council 100, and the St. Augustine Holy Name Society. The desire to protect and promote the
beautiful Cane River area led to his involvement with the St. Augustine Historical Society for which he served as president.
His impassioned plea to the Louisiana Board of Regents led to the establishment of the Louisiana Creole Heritage Center at
Northwestern State University for which he served as Chairman of the Advisory Council. He assisted in developing an
ethnographic study of the Cane River Creole community for the National Park Service, served on the state committee for the
National Register of Historic Places, the Heritage Area Commission for the Cane River Creole National Park, for which he
served as co-chair, and was a board member of the Natchitoches Parish Tourist Commission. He earned his place in history as
the "Father of the Creole Renaissance-Resurrection" as seen in the LPB documentary, "The Spirit of a Culture - Cane River
Creoles". As special tribute to his abilities to cross cultural lines and encourage multicultural interaction was paid by the
city of Natchitoches who declared March 29, 1997 as "Terrel Delphin Day". He received the Creole Center's "Historic
Preservation Award" in 1999 and 2003. The Natchitoches Police Jury presented him with the "People's Involvement Award" for
his work in Creole heritage preservation. "Cane River Mayor" was Terrel's most recent honor bestowed. In his last quest, he
worked to establish the "Civil Rights Hall of Fame" in Natchitoches. He truly believed that the African-American community in
Natchitoches has a significant history of leadership and achievements that should be recognized. On May 6, 2011, Terrel was
presented with an "Honorary Doctorate of Humane Letters" degree by Northwestern State University, for his work in bridging
cultural and racial gaps through multi cultural education, harmony, and cooperation. He also received the award,
"Natchitoches Treasure 2007", in February, 2008. Terrel, or "Brother", as we called him, was in law enforcement in
Natchitoches parish for 18 years. A career change was made in 1980 when he became a part of the Louisiana Department of
Agriculture and Forestry, in which he held many positions, and rose to the esteemed position of Assistant Commissioner for
the Office of Animal Health Services. He retired from state service in 2005 and became employed as coordinator for the Office
of Homeland Security and the Office of Emergency Preparedness in Natchitoches. Mourning his departure, but cherishing his
memory are his loving wife of 44 years, Lillie Louviere Delphin; one daughter, Daphne Denise Delphin, of Natchitoches ,

000242 DUNBAR Patricia Dunbar received her wings on October 9, 2012 and has now embarked on the next phase of her incredible
journey. Patricia was born in Andalusia, Alabama, Jan 27, 1934. Her parents were Justice Mac and Kate Barron. She is
survived by her husband Sam B. Dunbar Jr. of New Orleans, her son Sam B. Dunbar III (Trey), her daughter Patricia Dawn Dunbar
(Tree), and her granddaughter Jasmine Siemer Dunbar, all three of Santa Cruz, California. Patricia traveled far over the
course of her life, starting in a small rural Alabama town before coming to Louisiana as a young woman. Her husband
recognized how special she was the first time he met her and his courtship of her led to a marriage of 58 years. Over the
course of their marriage Sam's love and support always sustained her. Patricia's life was committed to spiritual exploration,
learning and teaching. Her guiding vision was to "be with people as deeply as possible". In her early years she authored two
books for the Women's Missionary Union of the Southern Baptist Convention, and served as president of the local organization
at First Baptist Church of New Orleans. Her quest soon broadened as she explored a myriad of traditions and the intersection
of spirituality and psychology. Patricia's journey led to being a psychotherapist in private practice for 40 years. She was
one of the founders of the Yokefellow Center, a holistic learning center in New Orleans. In 1988 she created the Journey
School, an intensive study combining spiritual and psychological practices, which she conducted for 18 years. She also
created and led the Inner Journey Home program, starting in 2006, deepening the study of the connections between spirituality
and psychology. Patricia brought presence, deep listening, and inquiry to her work and relationships. She was always an avid
learner and searcher-exploring for herself first, and then leading others into the freedom to be who they are. Patricia was a
spiritual warrior, a guide, an advocate, a friend and a teacher, but through it all she never stopped being a student
herself. Patricia was a graduate of Jean Houston's Training Program for the Cultivation of Human Capacity, a student of the
Diamond Approach and a beloved member of Women With Wings and Mystics in Training. Patricia's exploration of the mystery will
now continue from a different realm. Her presence will be deeply missed, and all of us whose lives have been touched by her
wish her Godspeed on her new journey. A memorial service will be held December 8 and interment will be at Lake Lawn Cemetery.
Donations can be made in her name to Evergreen Cove, PO Box 744, Easton, MD 21601, a holistic learning center founded by her
dear friend and co-leader of Journey School and Inner Journey Home, Sarah Sadler. Times Picayune

Military Academy at West Point. She became an exemplary military wife, traveling widely with her family and living all over
the world - Alaska, Japan, Okinawa, and Italy. Her cheerful and optimistic spirit helped the frequent moves become
adventures, rather than uprootings, and with her warm and loving personality, she made friends for life at each location.
She received her A.A. degree at Monterey Peninsula College in Monterey, California. Her favorite assignment in their military
life was three years in Naples, Italy, where two of her children graduated from high school and the family enjoyed numerous
trips throughout Europe. When Col. Faust retired from the military, they returned to New Orleans where Virginia became
actively involved in the Orleans Club, Le Petit Salon, Daughters of the American Revolution, the Opera Guild, Vous Souvenez
Vous, the Fine Arts Club, and the Women's Auxiliary of Touro Infirmary. She volunteered as treasurer in several of the
groups, and served as Genealogical Records Chairman for the Spirit of '76 chapter of the DAR. She loved her family above all
else and was a beloved wife, mother, aunt, and grandmother. Virginia was passionate about preserving historical photos,
records, and family history, loved gardening, and had great fun researching genealogy on numerous trips in both the United
States and Europe. She is survived by her loving husband, Edmond L. Faust, Jr.; by three devoted children, Edmond L. Faust,
III (and Judy), Judith Faust (and Tracy Farmer), and Olive Elizabeth Faust (and S. Frazer Rankin); by five grandchildren who
brought great joy to her, Edmond L. Faust, IV, Jeffrey Arthur Faust (and Katrina), Kimberly Brooke Dorsey, Heather Lynne
Dorsey, and Cristina Marie Faust Mueller (and Ethan Nosowsky); by two great-grandchildren, Matthew Faust and Gabriel Glover;
and by numerous nieces, nephews, and cousins. Her family is deeply appreciative of the love and admiration expressed by so
many of her wonderful friends and family, and knows that her caring, affectionate, and fun-loving spirit will live on in all
of them. The family is especially grateful to Bernette Locket, to the wonderful caregivers of Home Instead and Home Care

000301 FUKSMAN Felicia Lewkowitz Fuksman, age 92, a Holocaust survivor from Poland who traveled the Deep South teaching about
the dangers of human evil and the fragility of civilization, died on Wednesday, October 17, 2012 in New Orleans. Mrs. Fuksman
was born "Feiga" Lewkowitz on May 20, 1920 in Lodz, Poland. She witnessed the "evacuation" of tens of thousands of Jews to
the Chelmno death camp, but with her pre-war experience in nursing, Felicia was labeled a "skilled worker" and avoided
countless "selections" for deportation. In August 1944 Mrs. Fuksman was transported to Ravensbruck concentration camp in
Germany. She was liberated by Russian soldiers at a labor camp in Wittenberge, Germany, in May 1945. After a stay at a
"displaced persons" camp in Berlin, she immigrated to the United States in 1949 and took the train from New York to New
Orleans in 1950. She met Max Fuksman, a fellow survivor from Lodz. They married in 1951 and proceeded to have three
daughters, Roslyn, Beth and Abbie. For many years the Fuksman's owned Fox Furniture on Magazine St. Max Fuksman died in 1982.
He was one of the first survivors to speak about the Holocaust, and Felicia decided to continue his legacy. For many years
she traveled across the Deep South, participating in teacher workshops and making presentations at schools. "There is not a
day, a night, not to dream of my people." She was President and member of the New American Social Club, the Jewish Community
Center, Hadassah, National Council of Jewish Women and Shir Chadash Conservative Congregation. For her tireless efforts in
Holocaust education, Felicia was honored in October, 2004 at a reception at the Tulane President's residence and given the
Distinguished Volunteer Award by the Southern Institute for Education and Research at Tulane University. In addition to her
three daughters, she is survived by her sons-in-law, Neal Morris, Gary Hellman, Ron Leopold and her five grandchildren,
Jeremy Morris, Max Morris (Karli), Everett Morris, Mallory Hellman and Max Leopold. The family would like to express its
appreciation to her caregivers for their love and attention, Annett Roth, Ella Bates, Tichia Taylor and Doris Marshall.

000303 GALLER HENRY GALLER DIES AT 91 "Mr. Henry Custom Tailor" 1921-2012 Henry Galler, a much beloved custom tailor, leader
of the Jewish community in New Orleans, and Holocaust survivor, died peacefully on Sunday morning, October 14, 2012, in
Dallas, Texas, where he lived since Hurricane Katrina. He was born in Olesyzce, Poland , and was ninety-one at the time of
his death. In 1939, at the beginning of World War II, Henry's hometown was occupied by the Soviet Union. He was sent to a
Soviet gulag for two years, but was released when the Soviet Union became an Allied nation. He joined the Polish army where
he rose to the rank of lieutenant and fought from Lenino in Russia, across Poland, to the outskirts of Dresden, Germany.
After the war, Henry followed his childhood sweetheart Eva, also a Holocaust survivor, to Sweden, where they were married.
They later relocated to the United States and eventually settled in New Orleans. For many years, Henry and Eva Galler devoted
themselves to teaching over 600,000 students about their experiences during the war, offering lessons on respect and
tolerance with the goal of eliminating prejudice. They traveled across the Deep South conducting hundreds of workshops and
presentations in Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama. The story of Henry and Eva and their small town in Poland is the basis
for teaching the Holocaust in many schools across the United States. Henry was a member of Congregations Chevra Thilim, Anshe
Sfard and Touro Synagogue in New Orleans, and Shaare Tefilla in Dallas. He was a member of the Lee E. Thomas Masonic Lodge
421 and named 'worshipful master' in 1976. He was a 32nd degree Mason and a Jerusalem Temple Shriner. He was president of
B'nai B'rith in New Orleans, as well as the Zionist Organization of America, New Orleans Chapter, and the New Americans
Social Club, a group of Holocaust survivors. He also served on the boards of the Jewish Endowment Foundation and the Uptown
Jewish Community Center. He received many civic honors, including the Key to the City of New Orleans and the Distinguished
Volunteer Award from Tulane University's Southern Institute for Education and Research. Over many years, Henry Galler's
tailor shop, 'Mr. Henry Custom Tailor' on St. Charles Avenue and later Jackson Avenue, served as a hub of political and
social activity in New Orleans. Everyone knew Mr. Henry for his warmth and generosity of character; his smile lit up the
room, and the twinkle in his eye was legendary. He was an eternal optimist. After Katrina destroyed their South Johnson
Street home, the Gallers moved to Dallas, Texas. Henry Galler was laid to rest on Monday, October 15 at Sparkman/Hillcrest
Memorial Park Cemetery in Dallas beside Eva, his beloved wife of fifty-nine years, who died in January 2006. Henry Galler is
survived by his three devoted daughters, Janina Galler of Boston, MA, Marilynn Wohlstadter of Dallas, TX, and Linda Galler of
Port Washington, NY; his three sons-in-law, Burton Rabinowitz, David Wohlstadter and Murray Singer; and eight grandchildren:
Loren, Arielle and Danielle Galler Rabinowitz; Justin, Eric and Clara Wohlstadter; and Jake and Scott Singer. Times Picayune

nonsense approach to life and faith with them. Jean was especially proud of her 27 years of sobriety in AA and shared this
tremendous accomplishment with anyone who would listen. In keeping with Jean's practical nature, she donated her body to
science. As a result of her donation, there will be no funeral service. After she has served science, her ashes will be

000586 PALMER Amy Louise Palmer, an artist of depth, vision, and passion, passed away in her home in Baton Rouge on October 3
at the age of 37. While Multiple Sclerosis claimed her young life, it could not diminish her interminable spirit and
commitment to painting. Amy continued to create art, even in her final days. Born to Edwin (Mickey) Palmer III and Diana
Nebel Palmer on April 16, 1975, Amy showed an interest in the visual arts from an early age. Inspired by trips with her
mother to the New Orleans Museum of Art and equipped by her father with as much paper as she could draw on, Amy began
painting her own world on paper at 3 years old. Amy continued to hone her craft, attending painting classes as a child, then
the New Orleans Center for the Creative Arts in high school, and finally the Savannah College of Art and Design. Not content
only to create her own art, Amy believed that that everyone has the capacity for creative expression. As a teacher, she loved
inspiring children to create their own masterpieces. Even in the final years of her illness, Amy would insist that visitors
contribute to the painting she was currently working on. Amy is survived by her mother Diana, father Mickey, sister Leigh,
brother-in-law Jeremy, nephew Jude, and too many devoted friends and family members to name. Friends and relatives are
invited to celebrate Amy's life and art at a memorial on Sunday, October 14, from 3pm to 5pm at the Renaissance New Orleans

000681 SELTZER Ben Seltzer (1945-2012), In Memoria Ben Seltzer, M.D., on October 22 at the age of 67. Ben was a loving
husband, father, grandfather and friend. He was also a terrific neurologist, teacher and researcher who will be missed
greatly by everyone who knew him. Ben was born in Philadelphia on Aug 5, 1945, raised by his parents Sylvia and Dr. Albert
Seltzer, and received his undergraduate degree at the University of Pennsylvania, where he was elected to the Phi Beta Kappa
honors society. He earned his medical degree at Jefferson Medical College and received his neurology training at Tufts and
Harvard and his fellowship training under the world's pioneer in cognitive and behavioral neurology, Dr. Norman Geschwind.
Following several years as a medical school faculty member at Harvard and Tufts, Ben moved to New Orleans in 1988, where he
was Professor of Neurology and Psychiatry at the Tulane University School of Medicine. Ben loved New Orleans and would have
remained there for the rest of his life, were it not for Hurricane Katrina and the closure of his department in 2006. After
returning to Harvard Medical School for several years, Ben was recruited to direct the Center for Alzheimer's Disease and
Cognitive Disorders at the Barrow Neurological Institute in Phoenix, Arizona, where he became one of the researchers in the
Arizona Alzheimer's Consortium. He was a dedicated physician, who played leadership roles in the clinical care of patients
with Alzheimer's disease, and in clinical research studies seeking to find better treatments for the disorder. He loved
working with his colleagues, residents and medical students. Ben was an author of almost 100 scientific articles and book
chapters, and he traveled widely giving over 700 talks and lectures. He loved his patients, and he valued the chance to
contribute to the human condition. He was a sweet man, who enjoyed running and Yoga classes, was fully or partially fluent in
seven languages, loved traveling, and had numerous hobbies. He was a lifelong collector of all sorts, including stamps, maps,
postcards, and art, and his most prized possession may have been his far-reaching collection of autographs, which he had
accumulated since childhood. He kept a list of every book he had read since the age of 12, and there were many. Ben is
survived by his wife Natalie, 93 year-old mother Sylvia and sister Dr. Marjorie Stanek, his children Daniel, Jennifer, Peter,
and Nathan, his daughter-in-law Beth, his grandchildren Edie and Theodore, and scores of patients, colleagues and friends. We

New Orleans, Louisiana, but she resided most of her life in Houma, Louisiana. After becoming the "war bride" of Harry A
Slater, the two remained in Houma and were married 63 years. Being a wife and mother meant everything to Shirley; and as her
family grew to include grandchildren and great-grandchildren she readily made space at her famous Thanksgiving table, cooking
Kosher turkeys and her delicious stuffing. An avid gardener, one could reliably count on Shirley to know the name of a
beautiful and obscure flower or tree. Another passion of Shirley's was Irish Setters; she always had a calendar of this
favorite dog hanging in her kitchen. Additionally, Shirley was an active member of Houma's small Jewish community, hosting
Shabbat services and attending services around the community. She also was a member of Beth Israel Synagogue in New Orleans,
LA and Hadassah. The last four years Shirley continued her commitment to Judaism as a resident in the William Breman Jewish
Home in Atlanta, Georgia. Fortunately, family remained close-by to keep her company. She was as beloved by the Breman Home
community as she was by her Houma community. Traditional Jewish graveside service will be held at Congregation Beth Israel
Cemetery, 4400 Elysian Fields, New Orleans, La. on Wednesday, October 3, 2012 at 1:30 pm. In lieu of flowers donate to a

000719 STATON Edward Staton After a lengthy illness, Edward Staton passed away September 28, 2012 at the age of 74. Staton
had been a resident of the New Orleans area since 1964 when his love of sports brought him to the Times Picayune as a sports
writer. When the New Orleans Saints kicked off their franchise in 1967, Staton was the team's first public relations
director. Throughout his career, the award-winning journalist continued to spotlight the Saints and LSU through his work as
the editor of publications such as Grid Week and Saints World. More recently the LSU graduate applied his writing expertise
and wit to the online publication, the Bayou Buzz. Ed's love of Louisiana sports and its festive lifestyle extended beyond
traditional journalism as he captured popular subjects on canvas and through the lens of his 35 MM camera. Staton also
expressed his creativity on the other side of the camera by enjoying roles in numerous films produced in New Orleans.
Friends and family marveled at his artistic ability and how it complimented his tough guy demeanor that he exhibited as a
championship high school QB and Golden Gloves boxer. As a family man and friend, Ed was an encourager who always found the
positives in the ones he loved. He also approached life with the Staton tradition of always having a joke or story ready to
share with those nearby. Survivors include his son, Ed Staton of Madison, MS; a sister, Jane Savage of Kenner, three nieces
and granddaughters. Leitz-Eagan Funeral Home in Metairie is handling the local arrangements, but plans for a memorial service

000740 TAYLOR Garland Ellis (Gary) Taylor passed away peacefully in his sleep Sunday, October 21, 2012, at 1:30 in the
afternoon with what his doctor described as "a Super Bowl sendoff" from his adoring family, friends, and the coronary staff
of Gulfport Memorial Hospital. Although his body gave out, he retained his sense of humor, sharp mind, caring heart, and
strong will until the very end. Gary was born at home on April 13, 1921, in Worcester County, Maryland, the only child of
Edward Moody Taylor and Delta Parks Taylor. He grew up in bone crushing and often hungry poverty, but developed the grit and
optimism that would characterize his entire life. After high school, his uncle Hargis Taylor loaned him the $600 he needed to
enroll at Beacom Business College in Wilmington, Delaware, where he met his lifelong friend, Arlie Baker, and began his
life's adventures. His first job as a stenographer led to their being posted to Panama, Alaska, and back to Panama. He
eventually spent nine years as a shipping agent in the Canal Zone, and was drafted to his job there during World War II,
serving in the army during the last year of the war. During that time he met Elizabeth (Penny) Pennington of Minneapolis, his
match in charm, good looks, and intelligence, and he used his lottery winnings to buy her diamond engagement ring. They
enjoyed a storybook marriage of 58 years until her death in 2002. After their first child, Dianne, was born, their idyllic
life in Panama seemed too artificial for raising a family, so Penny and Gary decided to return to the United States. Though
they had never even visited the city, they chose New Orleans as their new home because it was a port. It soon became apparent
that a shipping agent's salary would not support the lifestyle they had enjoyed in Panama, so Gary started a new career
selling hardware for Stauffer-Eshleman & Co. This led to a job offer to sell television sets for George H. Lehleitner & Co.
He retired from there as Chairman of the Board and CEO in 1986. As the family grew to include five children, they moved to
Bay St. Louis, Mississippi, in 1953, and even through moves to Baton Rouge and back to New Orleans, Gary kept a home there
for the rest of his life. He and Penny started a new business there, Southern Graphics, after his retirement. Gary's life was
a vivid reflection of twentieth century America. Born into hardship, strengthened during war, sharing in the success of mid-
century growth and contributing to the baby boom, he made sure no opportunity was wasted on him. His early experiences
inspired a love of travel that would take him around the world and to six continents. He took his last trip to Europe at the
age of eighty-nine and his last cruise at ninety. Though he and Penny had both grown up as only children of single mothers,
they successfully created the family they always wanted. They proudly watched their son Gene serve Mississippi as its U.S.
Congressman for twenty-one years, and their son Dean lead Tidewater Inc., a multinational corporation based in New Orleans.
They were equally proud of their daughters Dianne Lindsay of Baton Rouge, Louisiana, Sue Hampton of Denton, Texas, and Carol
Lander of Dallas. Every one of their twenty grandchildren felt like their favorite. In addition to his five children and
their spouses, Michael Derr of Baton Rouge, Marilene and Margaret Taylor of Bay St. Louis, Wade Hampton of Denton, and Bob
Lander of Dallas, Gary is survived by his twenty favorite grandchildren, sixteen great grandchildren, and another on the way.
He also leaves a beloved friend, Jean Magee of Bay St. Louis, who made his last years very happy. Most of all he leaves the
legacy of how to live-with exuberance, generosity , and gratitude in good times and strength and resourcefulness in bad-and
how to die-with love, optimism and courage. Visitation will be at St. Augustine Seminary Chapel, 199 Seminary Drive, Bay St.
Louis, at 9:30 on Saturday, October 27th. Mass of the Christian Burial will follow at 10:30. Interment will be private. In
lieu of flowers, donations may be made to St. Augustine Seminary, 199 Seminary Drive, Bay St. Louis, MS 39520. Edmond Fahey

000784 WARDER Margaret Ann Warder, a communications and public relations professional for more than three decades in New York
City, passed peacefully on October 6, 2012 after battling ALS for more than two years. "Marge" was born June 18, 1940 in
Buffalo, NY to Thomas and Norma Warder. The Warder family moved to Newport News, VA during WW II, and after the war moved to
Southern California, where Marge grew up. She attended Pomona Catholic High School, but in 1956 the family moved to Joliet,
Illinois due to her father's transfer in the glass manufacturing business. She graduated from St. Francis Academy and from
there went to West Virginia University, obtaining a Bachelor of Science degree in home economics. After two years as a
stewardess for Pan American Airlines, where she travelled routes all over the globe, Marge went to work for TR Sills, an
advertising agency in New York City where one of her first clients was Gatorade. She became adept at creating recipes and
using the products of clients. With her engaging personality she positioned the products on live television in markets all
across America. She also did the same for radio and placed food products through recipe and cooking tips in the print media
as well. This experience in advertising eventually led to a position as Vice President of the broadcast department at the
world-wide public relations agency of Burson-Marsteller. There Marge used her knowledge of on-air presentation and
communications strategies to train leading public figures and executives for clients such as Merrill Lynch, Burger King,
Owens- Corning Fiberglas, Johnson and Johnson, and many others when these companies found themselves in the news. In 1982
Marge went out on her own to form Warder Communications, utilizing her experience, skills, and contacts for an ever growing
list of clients including Domino's Pizza, Thomas J. Lipton Company, Novartis, TRW and many others. She trained Olympic skiing
legend Jean Claude Killy, physical fitness trainer Jack LaLane, Wendy's Founder Dave Thomas, and b aseball manager, Sparkey
Anderson. In 2001 Marge opened a new chapter in her life moving to Tryon, North Carolina. She skied often, loved travel, and
enjoyed hosting friends for dinner, but she had a life-long love of horses from the time she rode bareback in the orange
groves of Southern California, to riding in Central Park, to joining two hunt clubs in Tryon. In Tryon she still kept active
in the public relations business, even as she rode her beloved quarter horse, Monty, chasing foxes, and taking in rescued
dogs. As a woman who achieved much in her field, she was sought after to speak to professional gatherings and was active in
the Public Relations Society of America, the American Dietetic Association, Women Executives in Public Relations, among
others. Marge kept in touch with her many friends from Joliet Catholic, West Virginia University, Phi Beta Phi sorority, and
her friends at the various horse clubs she joined. When diagnosed with ALS two years ago, Marge moved to Metairie to be near
her sister, Carrie. Although she came to Louisiana knowing only her beloved dog Katie, Marge found many compassionate and
caring friends who touched her life, especially the wonderful staff at Sunrise Senior Living, Concerned Care Hospice, her
loving caregivers from Home Care Solutions, and the many horses (and their owners) who visited her at Sunrise and who
welcomed Marge to their farms. She is survived by her sister, Carolyn (Carrie) Bartlett, and her brothers Thomas and Michael.
A memorial social will take place Saturday, October 13 at Sunrise of Metairie 3732 W. Esplanade from 2-4 pm. A memorial
service and burial will be held at a later date in West Virginia. In lieu of flowers, please send donations to either New

Donaldsonville, Louisiana, and Benjamin Joseph Williams of New Orleans. She attended Sacred Heart Academy (The Rosary) in New
Orleans from kindergarten through high school and graduated in 1944. Classically educated, Dr. Waring traveled
internationally as a young woman and spent a study year abroad in Edinburgh, Scotland. She also studied at Oxford, England.
As an undergraduate, Dr. Waring spent two years at Rosemont College in Rosemont, Pennsylvania. She received a Bachelor of

in both pediatrics and allergy/immunology. During the ensuing years until her retirement following Hurricane Katrina Dr.
Waring cared for thousands of area adults and children. She enjoyed extraordinarily close relationships with her patients.
Dr. Waring was a tenacious and gifted diagnostician and persisted unrelentingly in her efforts to develop effective plans of
care for her patients. She will be long and fondly remembered by her numerous patients and her many professional colleagues.

Vollenweider Waring, originally of Lafayette, Louisiana. During her professional career Dr. Waring also maintained numerous
hospital medical staff relationships, belonged to many professional organizations, published or co-published many scholarly
articles, and held numerous academic faculty appointments. Dr. Waring was also a Sustaining Member of the Junior League of
New Orleans. She enjoyed a wide circle of personal friends. Above all, she was well known for her rich sense of humor. She
relished the many ironies in life. Nell-Pape Waring was a devout Christian and, for many years, maintained a Catholic women's
prayer group. She was a devoted and loving wife, mother and grandmother. She will be missed by all who knew her. Funeral

000795 WEBB Lt. Col. George Walton Webb, P.E. 1923-2012 George Walton Webb, long-time professor at Tulane University and
widower of Dorothy Maness Webb, passed away peacefully at his home in Houston on October 14, 2012. He was 89. George was born
in July 1923 and raised in Uniontown, Alabama. He was the youngest of four children of Robert Leonidas Webb and Ethel Carr
Webb. After their deaths, he was raised by his aunt and stepmother Sallie Carr along with her sister Annie Kathleen Carr and
brother John Lilburn Carr. George earned a Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering in 1943 at the University of
Alabama, where he was inducted into Tau Beta Pi engineering honor society and Phi Delta Theta fraternity. George was a
lifelong fan of Alabama football and was very happy to see Alabama reclaim the national championship this past January.
George served in the U.S. Army in World War II. After completing Engineering Officer Candidate School at Fort Belvoir,
Virginia, he served as a lieutenant in the 3061st Engineer Company, first in France and Belgium in the Rhineland Campaign and
then in the Luzon Campaign in the Philippines. His wartime decorations included the European-African-Middle Eastern Campaign
Medal with Bronze Star, Asiatic-Pacific Campaign Medal with Bronze Star, American Campaign Medal, World War II Victory Medal
and Philippine Liberation Ribbon. After leaving active duty George continued to serve in the Corps of Engineers as part of
the Army Reserve, from which he retired in 1983 with the rank of Lieutenant Colonel. He was a member of The Retired Officers
Association (now the Military Officers Association of America). After the war George earned a Master of Science in Electrical
Engineering at Columbia University in 1947. He worked for General Electric in New York and New England before becoming a
professor of electrical engineering, first at the University of Alabama and then for 37 years at Tulane University in New
Orleans. As a professor, he was known for teaching practical courses, especially the electric machinery lab; for his bow ties
(since neckties would be dangerous around rotating machinery); and for his somewhat corny jokes, which he would try out on
his family at the dinner table before using in class. During his Tulane career George also worked as a consulting engineer
for Denson Engineers and later Davies Engineering (now Excel USA) designing electrical systems for industrial structures. He
also served as an investigator and expert witness on electrical fires and accidents. George was a registered Professional
Engineer in Louisiana and a member of the Louisiana Engineering Society. He was a Senior Life Member of the Institute of
Electrical & Electronics Engineers and had been a member of its Power Engineering and Industrial Applications societies.
George retired from Tulane in 1993 and moved with Dorothy to Houston in 1995. He served for several years as a volunteer at
the Sgt. Macario Garcia Army Reserve Center. He had a lifelong passion for his workshop and home projects and for puzzles of
all kinds, which he continued to enjoy until earlier this year. George was predeceased by his siblings Robert Leonidas Webb
Jr. in California, Jane Fox Webb Powe in Alabama and Charles Carr Webb in Texas; his son-in-law Paul Crist; and his beloved
wife Dorothy. He is survived by his daughter Ann Elizabeth Webb and granddaughter Elizabeth Grace Crist in Houston; his son
George Walton Webb III and daughter-in-law Susannah Koontz Webb in Houston; and his nephews, grand-nephews and grand-nieces
in Texas, Alabama and California. The family extends profound thanks to the staff of CareTemps care agency and Hospice
Compassus, who made it possible for George to spend his last months comfortably at home. George will be buried with military
honors at Houston National Cemetery on Friday, October 26, 2012 at 10:00 AM. The family will receive visitors Thursday
evening from 5:00 to 8:00 pm at Levy Funeral Directors, 4225 Bissonnet, Bellaire, Texas 77401, (713) 660-6633. In lieu of
