I have fond memories of the rare chances i had to spend time with "Uncle Anthony". He was a great historian and story teller. I wish I had his family history and genealogy notes. Nanny Flo ( my Grandmother) and his other siblings are waiting in heaven to greet him.

Its been 40 years since I last saw J.B. at a party at my mothers home in Gentilly, yet I recall him clearly. His wife Mary Lynn is a 1st cousin. My condolence to all those he leaves behind. May he rest in peace.

Mary Lynn and Family, know that my thoughts and prayers are with you at this
time. Anthony once brought me a banner that read "Don't should on yourself today."
I have often thought of these words when I needed to "follow them." With much love,
Sandra Raymond (Cox) and husband Bernie who knew Anthony when he was the librarian
and Bernie was a counselor at UNO.

He walked into our Junior French class on the first day and said, "Voici la boite. From there unfolded what I still consider to be the best two courses I have ever taken. He was not only an excellent teacher but a gentle, caring and dedicated man whose positive influence on my life remains.
