HAMMOND—Tangipahoa Parish President Robby Miller has signed an order lowering flags to half-staff at parish buildings in memory of longtime City Court Judge Grace Bennett Gasaway, who died early Thursday morning.

“Judge Gasaway spent the last 25 years dedicating herself to serving the people of the 7th Ward as their City Court Judge. She raised awareness for juvenile issues, helped establish the annual Back to School bash which provides school supplies for children throughout our community, and led the charge to streamline operations at the City Court,” Miller said.

Miller asks that flags remain at half-staff until the conclusion of funeral services for the Judge next week.
