John passed away last night after a lengthy illness.
He was a great local historian for Minden, Webster and North La in general who knew where most of the skeletons were buried.
He was a true Bulldog
RIP John you are in a much better place and will be greatly missed
Thanks for letting us know Dwayne. I only knew John here on the board, but I always appreciated his posts.
Very sorry to hear that. Prayers for his family.
Always sad to lose a good person, prayers to his family!
We also lost Dr. Deas Sunday afternoon, a stalwart Tech supporter and at his passing the oldest living Tech football letterman...
Is this "The Historian" that posted often on here?
His screen name here was JAAganQuote:

My understanding is that Dr Deas, who lived in Homer, was 104 years old when he passed. WOW! A lot of LA Tech athletic history died with that man.Quote:
