| 1853 | Obituary: James Gandy May 10, 1920 - March 6, 2013 Graveside services with Masonic Rites for Dr. James Gandy, age 92, of Brownwood, will be held at 2 PM, Friday, March 8, 2013 at Gandy Cemetery near Thrifty. Burial will follow under the direction of Netherton Funeral Home & Cremations. A procession will leave from the funeral home at 1:15. Dr. Gandy passed away peacefully at his home on Wednesday, March 6, 2013. James D. Gandy, DVM and naturally called "Doc", was born on May 10, 1920 at Cameron, Texas. He is the son of James and Zeta Nelson Gandy. Doc graduated from Milano High School in May, 1938 and spent 1939 and 1940 in the CCC. He then entered Texas A&M College for about a year before volunteering in the Army Air Corps Flying Cadet program. Upon entering active duty in November, 1941 at Ellington Field, Texas, he began his Air Corps career. Because of his language abilities, he was sent for one year to Michigan College for language training. Upon completion of this training, he was fluent in Spanish, Italian and English. In May, 1943, Doc shipped out for New Guinea in the South Pacific to serve as a photographer and gunner in photo reconnaissance. After 10 missions in B-24s he transferred to the 372nd Bomber Squadron, also flying in B-24s. Operating out of Holandia, New Guinea, he flew as a photographer and gunner on long over-water missions. His unit supported the Australian invasion of Borneo and also went on bombing raids in the Philippines. They hit convoys, land facilities and targets of opportunity. During the war, Doc flew a total of 26 missions. Doc considered himself to be very lucky in regard to the war. On one mission, he was sitting on a stack of leaflets to be dropped on the Japanese. Anti-aircraft shrapnel penetrated the B-24 and nearly all of the stack, stopping just short of Doc's spine and posterior. While stationed at Holandia, Doc traded with the friendly natives and acquired a small outrigger canoe. On one sailing trip, the wind blew him into an area occupied by the enemy. Luckily, friendly natives reached him before the Japs did and took him safely home. He did not get to carry out his vow never to be captured even though he had his trusty .45 pistol with him. After the atomic bombs were dropped on Japan, Doc came home on Operation Sunset. This was a mission to return B-24s to the U.S. One third of the planes and most of the crew members did not make it on the long flight back. Again, Doc was lucky. There were 13 crew members on each plane. Doc was discharged on December 8, 1945 at Randolph Field, Texas after 4 ½ years of service with the rank of S Sgt. For his service, he was awarded the following: American Theater Ribbon, Asiatic Pacific Theater Ribbon with three Bronze Starts, Philippine Liberation Victory Medal, Good Conduct Medal, Air Medal with one Bronze Cluster and two Overseas Bars. After discharge, Doc re-entered Texas A&M and graduated in 1951 as a DVM (Vet). He practiced in Killeen for 10 years and then in Brownwood until he retired from private practice in 1995. He then worked as a US Government Veterinarian for 15 years, a total of 50 years as a DVM. Doc and Maisie Ross were married on December 17, 1949 in College Station, Texas. Together, they raised two sons and later enjoyed grandchildren and great grandchildren. They always enjoyed being with their offspring even though it was often noisy. Doc got into politics for one term on the Brownwood School Board. He enjoyed the war more than he did the politics. Doc had many good friends in the service and felt honored to have known and served with them. He was also a 50-year member of the Brownwood Masonic Lodge 279 where he was highly thought of. Doc leaves behind his wife of 63 years, Maisie Gandy of Brownwood; sons William Gandy of Brownwood; James Edward Gandy and wife, Judy of Lubbock; a number of grandchildren; two great grandchildren; two sisters, Minnie Schmidt of Mason and Thelma Ruth Wade of Austin and one brother, Jessie Gandy of Ledbetter. He was preceded in death by his parents and two sisters. (Published by Heartland Funeral Home of Early, TX) | Gandy, Dr. James DVM (I13367)

| 1897 | Obituary: Jane E. Prudhomme NEW ORLEANS - Jane E. Prudhomme, a University of New Orleans administrator who was instrumental in helping the lakefront school become one of the nation's top 200 universities in terms of research dollars, died Monday, Aug. 11, 2003, of cancer at her home in Slidell. She was 53. As assistant vice chancellor for research and sponsored programs, Ms. Prudhomme worked with faculty members in identifying grant opportunities and submitting applications. Her success made her office one of the most important players in UNO's drive to become a nationally recognized research university, colleagues said. Besides trying to match professor's research interests with potential grant-making organizations, Ms. Prudhomme coached new faculty members through the application process, giving them tips and skills that would help them find underwriting for future research. "Her excitement about the prospect of getting research funding sometimes initially surpassed the faculty member's," one UNO professor said. "She would encourage them to believe that the funding was possible, and in turn they would work up to their best level and get the grant." Born in Lafayette, Ms. Prudhomme graduated from the University of Southwestern Louisiana and earned Master's degrees from UNO and the University of Wisconsin at Madison. She joined the UNO staff in 1986 as assistant director of the university's Downtown Center. She moved to the main campus in 1994 as director of research and sponsored programs. She was named a vice chancellor in 1999. Ms. Prudhomme also championed the Jazz Journey program, a joint effort of her office and the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Foundation that brought campus and community audiences together to hear jazz performers such as Ahmad Jamal and Shirley Horne. Survivors include two brothers, William J. Prudhomme, of Mandeville, and Robert W. Prudhomme, of Dade City, Fla. A memorial service will be held Monday at 4 p.m. at the UNO Newman Center on Alumni Drive, across from the University Center.
