Jack Keahey
Jack Lynn Keahey, Jr. (August 24, 1935 – May 4, 2007), was a businessman, boat builder, welder, mechanic, politician, and civic leader in Columbia in Caldwell Parish, in northeastern Louisiana. He was best known as the president of the Tensas Basin Levee Board.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Deaths elsewhere )〕 Having joined the district in 1992, he served as its president from 2000 until his death.
==Background==
Keahey (pronounced KAY HE) was born to Jack Keahey, Sr. (1908–1995), and the former Rayma Lorena George (1912–2011)〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Legion Memorial Cemetery interments )〕 in St. Joseph, the seat of Tensas Parish, located adjacent to the Mississippi River in northeastern Louisiana. The senior Keahey relocated to Louisiana from Cairo, Illinois, to assist in the construction of the Mississippi River levee. Rayma Keahey's family moved from Yell County in northern Arkansas to Newellton in northern Tensas Parish. Interest in levees hence spanned two generation of Keaheys.〔Obituary of Jack Keahey, ''Monroe News Star'', May 6, 2007〕
