He started as a correctional officer, then patrol deputy, and quickly became a member of the Sheriff’s Tactical Narcotics Team and Special Operations Group (S.O.G). Adam was also a member of the ATF Project Safe Neighborhoods Federal Task Force. Adam’s passion for advanced, continuous law enforcement training and his tactical mindset caused him to excel in his narcotic and firearm investigations at the Sheriff’s Office. In his 26 short years he built a lasting legacy with his work ethic, love, compassion and respect for others.

He was preceded in death by his maternal grandfather, Paul J. Fett; and his grandfather-in-law, Lloyd H. Ford.

He is survived by his wife, Emily Ford Nelson of Marthaville, Louisiana. Adam and Emily met at the University of Texas in Tyler while he played baseball with the 2018 National Championship team. Soon after meeting, Adam knew Emily was “the one”, and they were married on September 12, 2020. They later moved to Emily’s hometown where she sparked a love in him of travel, outdoors, and hunting. They opened up their home to their two beloved huskies, Aspen and Lou.

Adam is also survived by his grandparents, Eddie and Carolyn Nelson and Dianne Sparks and her husband Dave; his father, Mike Nelson; mother, Julie Fett Nelson; brother, Andy Nelson and wife Erin and their children, Jackson and Maya; brother, Aaron Nelson; sister, Abby Nelson and fiancé Seth Wimberly; his father and mother-in-law, Bradley and Crystal Ford; brother and sister-in-law; Micah and Brooke Arbuckle and their children, Sophie and Harrison; sister-in-law, Camryn Ford; and a host of aunts, uncles, cousins, and brothers in blue.

Pallbearers will be: Andy Nelson, Aaron Nelson, Austin Nelson, Micah Arbuckle, Sam Beason, Hayden Evans, Miles Savell and Trey Mitchell.

Honorary Pallbearers will be the Sabine Parish Tactical Narcotics Team: Jesse Branam, Josiah Steinke, Trevor Beason, Nick Sandel and Brennan Jones.

Jerry Pierce notice of death

NATCHITOCHES — Jerry Pierce, who served over 57 years on staff at Northwestern State University and as vice president of External Affairs since 1990, died Tuesday, Nov. 8 after a brief illness. Funeral arrangements are pending. Pierce’s impact at the university, in the community and around the state was profound, not only as an administrator, but as a writer, humorist, ambassador, fund raiser and mentor to personnel at all levels of administration, including nine NSU presidents. “Mr. Pierce has been part of the fabric of this institution since the mid-60s and served under several presidents with integrity and class. He will be irreplaceable,” said NSU President Dr. Marcus Jones. “I consider him a friend and a mentor who has always been there to provide sage advice.” “Words cannot express the magnitude of the impact that Jerry Pierce had on Northwestern State University and on me professionally and personally,” said Dr. Chris Maggio, NSU’s immediate past president. “He knew everyone on a statewide level and opened so many doors for me. There was not a day in my presidency that Jerry and I didn’t talk. Whether it was in preparation for visits to the Capitol, meetings with donors or presentations to constituents, Jerry was there for me with research done, briefings prepared and communication tips provided. He was such an effective communicator.” “Jerry Pierce is the greatest story-teller I have ever known,” said Dr. Jim Henderson, president of the University of Louisiana System and former NSU president. “All of us in the Northwestern State family should be grateful that he dedicated that peerless talent to serving our alma mater for nearly 60 years. His loss leaves a void that will never be filled, but his legacy will never be forgotten.” A graduate of Springhill High School, Pierce was recruited to Northwestern in 1957 as a football trainer and was a four-year letterman in that position. As a student, he was an N Club officer and sports editor of the university newspaper. He joined the staff of The Times-Picayune in New Orleans after receiving his journalism degree in 1961 and became executive sports editor at age 24. Pierce returned to Northwestern in 1965 as Sports Information Director. He later served as News Bureau director and assistant to the president before he was named vice president of External Affairs, overseeing NSU Athletics, NSU Foundation and Alumni Affairs, News Bureau/Media Relations, Sports Information, the Wellness Recreation and Activities Center and the NSU Recreation Complex. He worked for years with legislators and other elected officials as the university’s governmental affairs representative, served as institutional representative to the NCAA and Southland Conference and was a former president of the conference. He co-chaired Northwestern’s Centennial celebration and 125thanniversary activities. Pierce represented NSU as a speaker and master of ceremonies at hundreds of events across the state for decades and as host or guest on numerous radio and television shows and special broadcasts. Pierce brought the Louisiana Sports Hall of Fame to Natchitoches in 1972 and directed the program for nearly 20 years. During that time, he was named one of the 20 “Most Influential People in Sports in Louisiana” by The Times-Picayune. He played a leading role in establishing the Long Purple Line, NSU’s alumni hall of distinction, and the NSU Athletic N Club Hall of Fame and was a recent inductee into both entities. Pierce received numerous journalism awards and honors for other civic, social and professional activities. In addition to writing and editing several decades’ worth of news releases and publications at NSU, has also wrote thousands of stories and articles of all kinds for Louisiana newspapers and statewide publications. Pierce received numerous Louisiana Press Association awards for general interest columns, features, sports columns, editorials and was recognized by the Louisiana Sports Writers Association and College Sports Information Directors of America for news stories and sports publications. Among his many other projects, Pierce was author of a book of columns published by the Association of Louisiana Electric Cooperatives and wrote the text for the 200-page coffee table book `Northwestern at 125″ commemorating NSU’s 125th anniversary. He was Northwestern’s liaison for the filming of “Steel Magnolias” and “The Man in the Moon” and was co-editor of “Steel Magnolias Scrapbook” on the filming of the movie in Natchitoches. Other professional recognition includes 50-year membership awards from both the Louisiana Press Association and Council for Advancement and Support of Education and membership of Blue Key National Honor Society. He was awarded lifetime membership in the Louisiana Sports Writers Association and was the first recipient of the organization’s Mac Russo Award for contributions to the ideals and progress of the organization. Pierce was extensively involved in civic activities in Natchitoches through the years. Among his honors and recognitions, he was recipient of Natchitoches Mayor’s Award for Community Service, American Legion Natchitoches Parish Man of the Year, Natchitoches Parish Chamber of Commerce President’s Award; City of Natchitoches Achievement Appreciation Award, Lieutenant Governor’s Louisiana Ambassador Award, member of Chamber of Commerce first Ambassadors’ Club, finalist for Chamber of Commerce Natchitoches Parish Man of Year; Kiwanis Club member and officer; charter member of the Mystic Krewe de St. Denis; member of The Agitators social organization; Dignitaries and Publicity Committee of Natchitoches Christmas Festival and member of First Baptist Church. He served as coach and counselor for youth sports programs and on budget, publicity and publications committees. He was also an avid tennis player and was a member of USTA teams that won more than a dozen state championships, five regional titles and a national championship. Pierce provided substantial financial support to the university and was recognized for more than 20 consecutive years of contributions to the NSU Foundation. He and his wife Regina established endowed scholarships at the university in athletics and academics. In addition to Regina, Pierce is survived by two sons, a daughter, nine grandchildren and six great grandchildren. Pierce and 3 presidents: In a February 2022 photo, Jerry Pierce, right, is pictured with NSU’s three living presidents, past president Dr. Chris Maggio, current president Dr. Marcus Jones and past president Dr. Jim Henderson.

Jack Ward Dymke Sr. “Bucke,” 87, passed away August 15, 2022, surrounded by loved ones.

He was born in Milam County, Texas, on August 4, 1935, to Jessie Louise (Holman) and Ronald Printis Dymke. He spent the bulk of his childhood with his maternal grandparents, Clara (Corbitt) and Joseph Ward Holman, “Compy,” working on and experiencing their farm. Jack attended school in Rockdale, Texas, participating in boxing, football, FFA, and Boys State. He learned from wise mentors and started lifelong friendships while developing the fundamental skills for his vocation as a businessman and civic leader.  After his mother married the love of her life, Arnold Morris Mason Sr., Bucke found the man he saw as his father.

On February 12, 1955, the young Jack Dymke finally married his beloved Evva Dene (Johnson) of San Augustine, an older woman of 20.  (It’s a long and beautiful story) Anyone can tell you it was the best decision of his life and he loved her intensely. No one thinks of one without the other… and “the two shall become one flesh” (Gen 2:24). They were wed and resided in Galena Park, near Houston.

Their first child, Jack Ward Dymke Jr. aka “Buck-2” was born in October 1956, their second, Jan Leenette, in February 1957, their third, Terri Lynn in March 1961 and the fourth Tina Evette, in April 1967. During those first 10 years, he traveled internationally all around the world selling oilfield supplies for Standco, Inc. He determined he would not renew his passport and they moved north to White Oak, Texas, in 1965 to start O&D Sales and Service and O&D Manufacturing. They built a very successful AMWAY distributorship and White Oak Realty, after selling O&D to their business partner. He ended his working career back in the oil & gas industry working as a landman, pumper, and mentor to many young, upcoming, aspiring roustabouts, roughnecks and production crews.

Jack and Dene were founding members of White Oak United Methodist Church and active community/school volunteers. He coached Little League and Little Dribblers, taught us all to love the outdoors, hunting, and fishing. Jack was a member of the White Oak Lions Club and they served as the Leo Youth sponsors. He transferred his membership to San Augustine Lions Club when they moved to San Augustine some 17 years ago to retire from paid work and come serve the family as their land manager. He was the “Sweetheart of San Augustine County” and he loved you all very much for your warm welcome. This was a beautiful place for him to retire and serve.

He is survived by his loving wife of 67 years, Dene; daughter, Jan Hood and husband, Joe, along with their two sons, Jared (wife, Madison and children Avynn, McClane, and JC) and Jackson (wife, Ashley and children Amelia and Banks); daughter, Terri Null and her son, Travis Harris (wife, Katherine and daughters Savannah & Landry); daughter, Tina Moyers and husband, Jeff, along with their two children, Jake and Kristen; sister, Louise King and husband, Ronnie; brother, Arnold Morris Mason, Jr. and wife, Pam; sister-in-law, Grace Mason; sister-in-law, Johnida (Johnson) Evans; brother-in-law, William “Bub” Johnson and wife, Judy. There are also countless special nieces and nephews that call him Uncle Bucke, two God-sons, Ray and Paul Broeder, foreign exchange students, and adopted extras. All have found refuge and love in his home, as well as encouragement in his words. He was a powerful person of influence.

He was preceded in death by his grandparents and parents, as well as, his in-laws, John and Harlowe Johnson, his sister, Billye Tyler, as well as his brothers, Curley Dymke and Joey Mason. He has also experienced the heartache of burying his God-daughter, Kathy, his son, Jack, and his grandson, Justin Harris, well before their time, along with his daughter’s heartache as she buried her husband, Larry Null, just last year. He was no stranger to the hard things of life, but we believe they all welcomed him home to heaven and are rejoicing with him now around the throne of Jesus!

Visitation will be held from 5:00 to 8:00 p.m. Wednesday, August 17, 2022, at Wyman Roberts Funeral Home, 316 W. Columbia Street in San Augustine.

Funeral services will be held at 10 a.m. Thursday, August 18, 2022, at the First United Methodist Church, 205 S. Liberty Street in San Augustine. Interment will follow at Liberty Hill Cemetery.

The family requests that in lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to your favorite charity, San Augustine’s First United Methodist Church, or the Alzheimer’s Association.

Bryan “BJ” Allan Miller Jr.

Bryan Allan Miller Jr. AKA BJ or Beej, 22 years of age passed away on May 14, 2021. BJ was born in Natchitoches Louisiana on September 5, 1998 to Bryan Allan Miller Sr. And Christi LeAnne Culpepper Miller.

After graduating high school in 2016 he became sick with heart failure and was blessed to receive a LVAD to help prolong his life and hopefully get him to a heart transplant. After he was able to go back to work, He worked at Jim South Propane in Many, La. BJ loved hanging out with his friends and just living his life. If there is one thing we can say about BJ, is that he was a FRIEND. He was loved by everyone he met. He had so many close friends that it would be unfair to name them all because we know we would leave someone out. BJ had one of the best personalities. And would do just about anything for anyone that asked.

BJ’s favorite thing to do was hang out with his friends and sit by fires and listen to music. In July of 2020 BJ had a stroke (brain bleed) in his head and six weeks later had to have a pump exchange. He started having problems not even a year later. We found out he had an aneurysm in his chest from his LVAD which led to more strokes. He had finally been approved for a heart transplant but the strokes were just too much and he didn’t have time, he had a major brain bleed that was just too much and there was nothing the doctors could do for him. BJ’s life on this earth is going to continue in a way that is so wonderful, He was able to donate several of his organs to save other people’s lives. We wanted so bad for him to have a new heart but that was not God’s plan. We believe his life on this earth was meant to  touch so many lives and to save lives with his organs. We pray for all that is receiving.

He is preceded in death by his infant brother, Conner Allan Miller, Grandmother Linda Marie Miller and Grandfather Felix Sonny LaCaze and a cousin Gregory Randle Singletary.

He is survived by his parents Bryan Miller, Sr. and Christi Miller. One brother Kasey Allan Miller, Grand Mother Martha LaCaze, Grandfather Bobby Miller and Grand Parents George Culpepper and Katherine Culpepper. Aunts and Uncles, Lyle Miller and partner Claudine, Nathan Miller and partner Brenda, Cecile Chelette and husband John, Trudy Theriot and husband Hilton, Jimmy Hijar and wife Lisa, Louis Hijar and wife Margarita, Justina Canzoneri and husband Brian, Pablo Hijar, Cory LaCaze and wife Amber and Tray LaCaze and wife Lynn. And a host of cousins that were more like brothers and sisters.

We would like to extend our sincere thanks and love to the many many nurses and doctors at Baylor Scott and White in Dallas Texas for all the care, love, and support for our son. They gave us five extra years with him. And for that we are so grateful.

Pallbearers will be Dylan Ledoux, Lucas Cheatwood, Matt Durr, Colt Connell, Austin Busby. Taylor Israel, Jared Dease, Dayton Trichel, Jacob Cruse and Austin Morgan.

A service officiated by Bro. Bill Hudson, Bro. Bruce Mitchell, and Bro. Roger Matkin will be held at 10am Friday, May 21st at the First Baptist Church Provencal.

Stuart Bird

Stuart was born in Mansfield, Louisiana.

He will be lovingly remembered by his wife of 39 years, Sharon; children: Tracy & David Modlin, Adam Bird, Ginger & Alan Colston, Kyle Bird, Holly & Eric Lyddy; grandchildren: Jacob & Abigail Bird, Braden Bird, Kyle Modlin, Landry & Maddux Lyddy, Patrick, Paige, and Payton Colston; uncle, Betty & Noel Tipton; his beloved golden retriever, Simon; as well as numerous friends, colleagues, and former students.

He graduated from Many High School, Many, Louisiana, in 1966.  He attended Stephen F. Austin State University and Northwestern State University in Natchitoches, Louisiana, graduating from Northwestern with a bachelor’s degree in music education and a master’s degree in educational administration.

At 19 he began teaching band, the start of a 47-year career in education.  Stuart was band director in Natchitoches Parish schools, Many High School, and Carthage High School.  He also served as Director of Fine Arts for the Carthage Independent School District.  As a director, he sought to instill his motto of “pride and character” in his students—in their individual performances, in the performance of the band, and in their lives.  His award-winning bands were known for their precision drills and quality of sound.  Stuart instilled enthusiasm for excellence with his “one more time” for good measure.

Stuart moved from the classroom to administration, serving as principal at Carthage High School and Jacksonville High School.  He also served as superintendent for Jacksonville Independent School District, and after a brief retirement, superintendent for Troup Independent School District and interim assistant superintendent for Tyler Independent School District.  Stuart’s common sense, attention to detail, love of people and his personal belief in pride and character made him a natural for his colleagues, parents, students, and personnel.

Always the educator, Stuart was a clinician for all-district and all-region bands throughout Louisiana and Texas and was a judge for numerous band contests in Arkansas, Louisiana, and Texas.  Throughout his career, Stuart continued to mentor young administrators, teachers, and band directors so that they could become masters in their own fields.

Stuart was the recipient of the Hall of Distinguished Educators, College of Education at Northwestern State University, and the Northwestern State University Alumni Band Director of the Year in 1992.  He was a member of various organizations, ranging from educational affiliations to civic interests as well as honorary memberships.  One of his most cherished experiences was being inducted into the Carthage Band Hall of Fame which included having Dr. Timothy Rhea, Director of Bands at Texas A&M University, compose a march in honor of Stuart. He was filled with pride hearing “Bird’s Battlin’ Brigade” for this first time.

Stuart Bird loved life and loved people.  He was excited about everything and everyone that crossed his path.  He was an avid hunter, outdoorsman and a sporting clay enthusiast, whose competitive nature made him want to always be the best, at the same time bringing out the best in others. He was genuinely outgoing and friendly and never met a stranger. Stuart always had a story to tell and a hug to share. He was a devoted family man and a loyal friend.  He was one of those rare individuals who made others feel that they were better people for having known him.

A tribute to his life will be held at a later date.

Memorial donations may be made to the Stuart Bird Scholarship Fund.

Stephen Weston White

Stephen Weston White, a son of Sabine Parish who was a loyal mentor, leader, competitor, and humble servant of God and humanity, left this world on Sept. 14, in Natchitoches, LA.

Born on Dec. 29, 1983 in Shreveport, LA, Weston was the son of Billy and Sandra White of Many.  He was baptized at the First Pentecostal Church in Many. Even as a child, he was fearless and full of life.  He attended church camp in Tioga annually, fished the Sabine River, and mastered the use of every tool or gadget he acquired.  His earliest confidantes were his brothers, Willie and Waylon, who shared his love for adventure, whether it be building, sports, bicycle riding, or innocent mischief.  He was even considered a sandwich connoisseur by his wide circle of friends.

Weston attended Many Elementary, Many Junior High, and Many Senior High.  He graduated in 2002 as a decorated athlete, earning varsity football honors as defense captain, honorable mention all-state defense player, and two-year first team all-district linebacker.  He earned the bachelor of science degree in business administration from Northwestern State University in 2007, where he was a member of Kappa Sigma Fraternity, serving the chapter as vice president and then president in 2006.  While in high school and college he held several part-time jobs that taught him the value of earning his education.

Following graduation, Weston joined his brother, Willie, in the oilfield industry, starting with lower-level jobs and advancing to a consultant for EP Energy Corporation where he was responsible for entire drilling operations.  During his career he set and held numerous records in the Eagleford and Permian Basin.

Weston, affectionately known as his mother’s “Precious,” leaves behind his parents; his brothers William, and his wife, Melissa; and Waylon, and his wife, April, both of Natchitoches; and his niece, Presley, and nephews Caleb, Caden, and Steele.  His aunts and uncles, Charlotte Coburn, Jimmy White, Jimmy and Yvonne Marr and Cousin’s DJ & Rebecca Baker, Tina Leone, Caitlin Pine, Brandon Leone also survive him.

He was preceded in death by his paternal grandparents, Billy and Betty White, his maternal grandparents, F.W. and Mildred Marr, his uncle, the Rev. Brooks Coburn; his aunt, Nelwyn Remedies; and his cousin, Jonathan Coburn.

A celebration of Weston’s life will be held on Friday, September 18, at 2 p.m., at New Life Evangelism Center in Natchitoches.  His family will receive visitors from 11 a.m. until the time of the service at the church.  Interment will follow at Fort Jesup Cemetery, under the direction of Blanchard-St. Denis Funeral Home of Natchitoches.

Pallbearers will be Jared Dunahoe, Dustin Hayes, Adam Chamberlin, Adam Founds, Derek Motley, Blake Byles, Blake Isgitt, Brad Goodman and Max Tannehill.  Honorary Pallbearers will be Jared Hewitt, Michael St. Germain, Daniel Courville, Clayton Thompson, Waylon Malmay, and the Theta-Mu Chapter of Kappa Sigma Fraternity.
