Gerald was born on January 16^th 1950 at Frasier Hospital in Many Louisiana to G.A. “Buddy” & Lanell Beasley. He was the oldest of five children. His siblings were Richard, Bill, Steve & Kim.

Gerald began school at Negreet, had an interim in Chester, Montana & finished up at Many High School. Soon after graduating from Many High School, Gerald served in the United States Army.

He was an innovative and hard-working man, and after completing his term in the army, Gerald began a career in the Oil & Gas industry that carried him all around the world in many different capacities and spanned close to 50 years, touching thousands of people’s lives. Even today it’s not an uncommon thing to randomly encounter someone in a remote corner of the world that has either met or worked with him somewhere along the way.

It has been a few exciting weeks for Many Tiger football, as they soundly made their way through two playoff games against East Feliciana and Pine, which they won 24-20 and 49-21, respectively. This Friday, they will meet Kentwood at home at John Curtis Stadium on December 6 at 7 p.m. Should they win, the team will make their way to the New Orleans Superdome on December 13 to play either Ferriday or Amite.

The game against Pine on November 28 saw the Tigers performing quite well. Despite Pine getting the first touchdown, Many came back quick and saw Terrence Williams punch in a touchdown from three yards out with 8:23 left in the first quarter, which tied the game 7-7.

It wasn’t until the second quarter that Many hit pay dirt again with Williams punching it in from oneyard out.

The holiday season can be a very difficult time of year for those who have experienced the loss of a loved one. We at Warren Meadows Funeral Home understand this and would like to invite you to join us at our annual “Tree of Remembrance” memorial program to honor and pay tribute to all of the families we have served this year.

The “Tree of Remembrance” memorial program will be held on Thursday, December 12, beginning at 6 p.m. at the Warren Meadows Funeral Home Chapel in Many. They will have a dedication service conducted by local ministers. At the conclusion of the service, the staff will present the family with your inscribed ornament as a keepsake.

When Sabine Parish has a need, her good citizens are faithful to help. The Zwolle Tamale Fiesta Board demonstrated that spirit of generosity recently when they designated one of its official event t-shirts as a fundraising effort to benefit Pink Sisters of Sabine. Pink Sisters serves local breast cancer patients by offering a tote bag of practical items for use during treatment, support and encouragement through social media, and pairing new patients with breast cancer survivor mentors.

On November 8 at their Volunteer Appreciation Dinner, the Zwolle Tamale Fiesta Board led by Pres. Chris Loupe donated a portion of the sales from their “Never Give Up” festival t-shirt to Pink Sisters of Sabine.

Family, friends, members of the Sabine Parish Chamber of Commerce and customers gathered for the ribbon-cutting and the official grand opening of Curtis Family Pharmacy at 11 a.m. on Tuesday, November 26.

The 2019 Young Achievers Award goes to Savanah and Siarah Hall, two sisters who have already accomplished much in their lives. Their story is an inspiring and unique one.

Savanah and Siarah Hall moved to Sabine Parish in 2009. They were born to biological parents who were both addicted to drugs and who both chose drugs over being parents. The sisters endured neglect, abuse and repeated abandonment, but came out of their experiences strong and with hopes not altogether dashed by their sad situations.

Savanah once wrote, “We were born in 1998 and 1999. Our parents (to be more accurate, the people who biologically created us) we both in their early 20s when they had us.
