The DeQuincy Railroad Museum Board of Directors

is saddened to announce the passing of Gary W. Cooper,

President of our Board and great volunteer in the City of

DeQuincy.  Mr. Gary passed awayTuesday, January 9, 2016.

He was twice mayor of DeQuincy.  In 1983, he initiated the 

lighting of the 1923 Kansas City Southern Depot at Christmas

time, and appointed a DeQuincy Historical Preservation

Board which resulted in the restoration and acceptance of the

depot to the National Register of Historic Places.  He sought

legislation to rename the DeQuincy Railroad Days Festival as

the Louisiana Railroad Days Festival, and at his suggestion,

the festival was moved to its present location on the grounds

of the DeQuincy Railroad Museum. He has served as the

President of the Board of Directors for the

DeQuincy Railroad Museum since 2008.

He will be greatly missedby all.
