| 1106 | Obituary: Doris Louise Vincent Sanders 1917 - 2005 Doris Sanders, of College Station, TX, passed away November 20, 2005. She was born December 9, 1917 in Grimes County. Mrs. Sanders died Sunday at home on Carter Lake surrounded by her beloved husband, daughter and grandchildren. She was a life-long resident of Bryan and College Station and was a member of the Aldersgate United Methodist Church. Doris was greatly loved by all who knew her and touched the lives of people around the world with her generosity, compassion, sense of justice and faith. She was known for her conviction in God, her keen sense of humor and endless energy for motivating people to live their life to the fullest and to love the Lord, Jesus Christ. She easily brought people into her home and into her heart. She cared for people in a way that made each person feel special, honored and valued. She cared enough to want to know the names of her nurses, EMTs and hospice staff (who took such wonderful care of her) and the names of their family members. Doris was wholly devoted to her family and was never far from the side of her husband, Ray. Doris and Ray, wonderful as business partners and life partners, loved their farm and working cattle together. She made the farm a family gathering place where as many memories as biscuits were made. She loved to travel, read, plant trees, garden, cook, and engage her grandchildren and great-grandchildren in arts and crafts. She loved gospel music and she loved to hear her daughter sing. She loved animals, especially birds and dogs. She laughed easily, enjoyed a good story and was always ready to tell one. She inspired her grandchildren to love the natural world and to know that ever tree had a purpose. She was like an oak tree with huge expansive limbs that provided shade and protection for all of us who stood under her canopy. Those who knew her would describe her as a woman of great religious faith, intense loyalty, courage, intelligence, and fiercely protective of those she loved. Those of us who lived with her knew her as a weaver, one who wove love and compassion throughout her family tapestry. Our lives are richer and stronger because of this dearly loved woman...my wife...my mother...my mother-in-law...our grandmother...our great-grandmother...our aunt...our mentor...our teacher and guide...our support system...our storyteller...our advisor...our encourager...our healer...our pioneer...our dear friend...our matriarch...our heart. Doris Sanders was preceded in death by her husband, Edward Zalenski; her parents, James E. and Lela Vincent; two brothers, James and Curtis Vincent. She is survived by her husband, J. Ray Sanders; her daughter, Dr. Ann Pye Shively and husband, Dr. Michael Shively of Springville, Utah; five grandchildren, Dori Petersen and husband, Matthew Petersen, of Nibley, Utah, Dr. Lori Pye of Channel Islands, California, Jim Pye and wife, Dawn Pye of College Station; Jeffrey Shively and wife, Lindsey Shively of Provo, Utah; Sheri Myers and husband, Jay Myers of Provo, Utah; and six great-grandchildren.

He was born in Springfield, Missouri on Feb. 19, 1938 to the parents of Homer Russell Kesterson and Dorothy Mace Kesterson. David came to UNT in 1968, after teaching at North Carolina State University for four years. He did his undergraduate work at Missouri State University, where, upon completion of his degree, he was awarded a National Defense Fellowship to pursue a Ph. D. in English at the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville. David served for over 40 years at UNT, where, aside from teaching American literature in the Department of English, he also held the positions of Associate Dean, Interim Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences, Vice Provost and then Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs, and finally as Special Assistant to the President for the Humanities. He was awarded a Senior Fulbright Fellowship to teach at the University of Wurzburg in Germany where he taught courses in English and American literature, of which he had many fond memories of the German students and culture. David authored books on Mark Twain, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Edgar Allan Poe, and humorists Edgar Wilson (Bill) Nye and Henry Wheeler Shaw (Josh Billings). In addition to the 6 books, he wrote numerous articles on American Literature, especially American humor and was president of the American Humor Studies Association. Dr. Kesterson was also a major co-founder of the Nathaniel Hawthorne Society, served as its first president, and edited and produced the Hawthorne Society Newsletter. He enjoyed his many travels to visit the places where major American authors lived, wrote and died, including but not limited to, Hannibal, Missouri; Elmira, New York; Hartford, Connecticut; Hawaii; and Heidelberg, Germany. He was also a member of Who's Who in America. Upon his retirement in 2007 as Professor Emeritus at the University of North Texas, David continued to pursue his interests of reading, as well as his other interest of music where he and his wife of thirty one years, Cheryl, enjoyed the excellent performances of the UNT College of Music. Little known to many is the fact that he was an excellent percussionist in the Springfield, Missouri, symphony and taught drumming to help pay his way through undergraduate college. Along with his enjoyment of reading and music, he delighted in the pleasures associated with walking, biking, and playing with his granddaughters. He actively followed his favorite baseball team, the Kansas City Cardinals, which he had watched even as a young boy growing up in Missouri. In addition to his wife, Cheryl (Monk) Kesterson, David leaves behind his sons, Aubry Todd Kesterson, (Tracey) and Chad Russell Kesterson, (Kelly).

His brother Ted Kesterson and wife Joyce of Bend, Oregon, nephews, David Russell Kesterson, Dan Kesterson, niece Kathleen Guittar, Kirk Kesterson, Stuart Johnson, and niece Christine Hasegawa. David is pre-deceased by his parents, Homer and Dorothy Kesterson. Davids love of friends, family, co-workers and all he met along his life's journey, will always be remembered who knew and loved him in return. His smile was a constant presence and his positive attitude made an indelible mark on all who were an acquaintance. The family wishes to thank the loving staff at the Village at Valley Creek Memory Care Center and Texas Hospice and Palliative Care for their excellent care and expertise. A memorial service will be held at 11:00 A.M. on Saturday, March 30th at DeBerry Funeral Directors.

| 1131 | Obituary: Dr. James F. Wygant August 4, 1919 - June 17, 2006 A memorial service for Dr. James F. Wygant is planned for 11 a.m. Friday, July 7, at Meadowwood Memorial Park, 700 Timberlane Road, Tallahassee, Fla. A reception will be held from noon to 3 p.m. at Dorothy B. Oven Park, 3205 Thomasville Road, Tallahassee. Born Aug. 4, 1919, in Hornell, N.Y., to Harold and Esther Wygant, he passed away Saturday, June 17, 2006, in Houston. He has gone to rejoin his beloved wife Carol in a better place. Jim graduated cum laude from Alfred University with a bachelor of science degree in ceramic engineering in 1941, and went to work for the Missouri Portland Cement Company in St. Louis. In 1943, he volunteered for the World War II draft. While in the Army and training at the University of Alabama, Jim met Carol Walker, a young civil engineering student. After a whirlwind wartime courtship, they married on July 3, 1944, beginning a lifelong partnership that lasted 54 years, until her death in 1998. Jim was honorably discharged in 1946 after serving overseas in North Africa. Returning to Alfred University after the war, Jim earned a master of science degree and then went on to MIT to take a doctorate in ceramic engineering in 1950.

Dr. Wygant rose to director of corporate research and manager of corporate services at the Amoco Research Lab in Naperville, until he retired in 1979 to Tallahassee. Those who knew him as Dr. Wygant, as Jim or as Dad uniformly aspired to rise to his standard. And yet, he had the grace to make the humblest person feel as his peer. We are better for having known him. Jim is survived by his brother, Foster Wygant of Cincinnati; his children, Margaret Marcum of Austin, Texas, Roger Wygant of Sandersville, Ga., Daniel Wygant of Fayetteville, Tenn., Susan Young of Houston, Charles Wygant of Tallahassee, James Wygant of Houston and Laurance Wygant of DuPont, Wash.; 15 grandchildren; and seven great-grandchildren.

| 1134 | Obituary: Dr. Michael Jay Shively February 9, 1946 - August 19, 2019 Mike was born in Mount Summit, Indiana to Phyllis Beavers Shively and Alan Shively. He returned to his heavenly home in Provo, Utah on August 19, 2019, with his family at his side. He was preceded in death by his parents, two brothers, and one sister. He is survived by his loving wife of 40 years, Ann; five children, Jeff Shively (Linsey), Sheri Meyers (Jay), Dori Pye, Lori Pye (Jacqui), and Jim Pye;12 grandchildren and one great-grandchild; a brother, Jeff Alexander, and a niece and nephew. Mike earned his DVM, M.S, and Ph.D. from Purdue University. He taught both veterinary and human anatomy and physiology before coming to Utah Valley University, where he has taught anatomy and physiology for the past 27 years. He was a prolific author in peer reviewed scientific journals as well as a solicited reviewer with four more publications currently in preparation. He was past president of the UVU Faculty Senate, former Department Chair in the Department of Life Sciences, and Faculty Athletic Representative. He was appointed the Human Anatomy Program Coordinator in 1993, redesigning the curriculum and building a program that has earned statewide and national recognition. Mike served the UVU community in various ways through support of the Wolverines in not only attending various athletic events, but also playing his trumpet at games. He enthusiastically kept UVU in both the state and national arenas through presentations at scientific meetings, being a grant recipient multiple times, and serving on university, national, and international committees. He served on the search committees for a past UVU president and new faculty members. He was the recipient of multiple citations, awards, and honors during his tenure at UVU, including nine teaching awards and five-time Teacher of the Year. Mike wrote poetry, songs, and possessed a great love for music. He was an accomplished musician on both trumpet and guitar; he was always honored to play his trumpet for Wolverine games, and his guitar when students requested it. He played with the American Fork Symphony and Sarge's All Star Band. He wrote love songs for his dear wife, Annie, poetry and journals for his children, and humorous verses (containing anatomical terms and anatomy lab jargon) for his many students over the years that he set to common tunes which occasionally resulted in rather ribald humor. He was also a marathon canoe racer and five-time champion and former record holder in various classes of the Tx Water Safari. He taught all of his children to paddle and they all retain a love of nature, exploration, and stewardship of the earth along with a healthy competitive spirit when in a boat. Mike was a husband and father most of all, but also a good friend, neighbor, and incredible human being. He was a builder of decks and of critical thought. Because of the thousands of students he taught, who in turn will serve thousands of others, Mike's legacy will continue to touch lives for good.

| 1141 | Obituary: Drake Richard Broussard June 24, 1998 - February 23, 2025 Abbeville - A Memorial Service will be held on Thursday, February 27, 2025 at Cypress Funeral Home for Drake Richard Broussard, age 26, who passed away on Sunday, February 23, 2025 in Abbeville. Visitation will be held on Thursday, February 27, 2025 from 10:00 AM until 1:30 PM at Cypress Funeral Home. A rosary will be prayed at 1:30 PM. Interment will follow the services at St. Mary Magdalen Cemetery in Abbeville. Deacon Bill will officiate. Drake Richard Broussard was born on June 24, 1998 in Lafayette and he was a lifelong resident of Abbeville. Drake's job at Glenn Lege Construction as a heavy equipment operator was something he truly enjoyed the last few month of his life. His love for operating machines started on zero turn mowing machine with his great-grandfather, CJ Stelly, at 3 years old. As Drake grew bigger, so did the machines, but there was nothing like the time he spent with his younger brother, Jeren. It's a guy thing; it's a bond they share that can never be broken. One of Drake's most rewarding places to be was standing in the kitchen at the stove, where he lacked no skills. It was something he was always ready to do. Many might describe him as "the life of the party"; he loved to make people laugh. He had one of the most contagious smiles and his own laugh was one you would want to hear on repeat. Then, there are his nieces and nephews, the little people he adored the most. They describe him as "the funniest person in the world." He loved those babies with his whole heart, and his memory will never be forgotten for all six of them. Knowing Drake was knowing how much he loved music, but not as much as he loved to sing louder than the music played. He expressed his deepest thoughts through a song. Drake valued a good friend, he thrived to make someone else's life easier despite his own internal struggles. To some, he gave the best advice; but sometimes failed to take his own. Our lives are forever changed by Drake's sudden passing and the memories we have of him are what we will hold close to our hearts, something that can never be taken from us. Drake is survived by his mother, Alisha Trahan (Scott Griffin), and his father, Tracy Broussard; his siblings, Claire G Prejean (Coy) of Kaplan and Jeren Broussard (Makayla) of Erath; his grandparents, Rick and Gleeda Coleman and Nadine Broussard; his nieces and nephews, Jaxen Roy, Vera Manuel, Jon Broussard, Jolie Broussard, Elle Broussard, and Leo Prejean; as well as his godparent, Lance Broussard. He was preceded in death by his nanny, Rene' Trahan; his maternal grandfather, Wilbert Trahan; and his paternal grandfather, Richard Broussard. Arrangements have been entrusted to Cypress Funeral Home & Crematory, 206 W. Lafayette St., Maurice, LA 70555.
