College Mourns Loss of Two Trustees
Masasuke 'Mat' Kawasaki, Slidell, La.
Mr. Kawasaki, a ship builder and United Methodist lay leader, died June 8, 2007 in Slidell, La. He was 82. He joined the Centenary Board of Trustees in 1992. A memorial service was pending in Slidell at press time.
William Hutchinson Jackson, Shreveport, La.
Mr. Jackson, who died unexpectedly on Dec. 19, 2006 at age 79, had contributed his expertise and service to the Centenary Board of Trustees for over 30 years. He served as chairman of the Great Teachers and Scholars Campaign in 1974. A Shreveport businessman, philanthropist and outdoorsman, he was awarded a life membership on the board in 2000.
Rodney B. Cage 66, and Virginia Daniel, director of planned giving, celebrate Cages gift that will keep on giving, via his bequest.
Cage Wishes to Do as Donors Did for Him
Rodney B. Cage 66 has retired twice and now wishes to do as donors did for himprovide the opportunity for a deserving student to attend Centenary. He has agreed to include a provision in his will to establish both an Endowed Scholarship and Annual Scholarship Fund. Cage credits Centenary for the solid liberal arts education that helped prepare him to think critically and solve problems creatively. After receiving a bachelor of science degree in mathematics, he completed successful careers working for IBM and Solving International, a consulting firm that he and a colleague created. He is one of the newest members of the Paul M. Brown, Jr. Society, those alumni and friends who include Centenary in their estate plans.
