Funeral arrangements announced for legendary WGNO Sports Director Ed Daniels

by: Raeven Poole

METAIRIE, LA. (WGNO) — Funeral services for long-time WGNO Sports Director Ed Daniels have been announced.

Ed died on Friday, Aug. 16, three weeks after suffering a heart attack in California. He was 67 years old.

Accompanied by his wife Robin, Ed was in the Los Angeles area to cover the New Orleans Saints training camp.

A request from Ed Daniels’ family

Just after midnight on July 26, Robin said Ed suffered a massive heart attack. He remained hospitalized in California until being transported back to New Orleans through the efforts of Saints owner Gail Benson and admitted to Ochsner main campus.

WGNO Sports

Ed was a Rummel High School and Loyola University graduate who went on to join WGNO in 1991, ultimately becoming the most senior member of the team during his 47-year career in television.

New Orleans Saints and Pelicans remember Ed Daniels

Of all his accolades, his greatest accomplishment was becoming a husband, father and grandfather, proudly known as “Pops” and “Popsiboo.” He was also a parishioner of St. Philip Neri Catholic Church and a member of the choir.

The public is invited to attend visitation and memorial mass at 6500 Kawanee Ave. in Metairie on Thursday, Aug. 22. Visitation is from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. and mass will start at 1 p.m.

The burial will be private, but the public is welcome to join the family at Rock N’ Bowl at 3016 S. Carrollton Ave. in New Orleans for a Celebration of Life from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m.

A Streetcar Named Desire by Tennessee Williams

Williams’ Iconic Pulitzer Prize-winning drama that follows Blanche’s odyssey from the columns of her ancestral Mississippi Delta mansion into the depths of the French Quarter is fraught with steamy sensuality. Blanche needs a world surrounded by softness and magic, but grief and consequences creep into the household of her sister Stella as soon as Blanche comes to visit. Will Blanche be able to start her new life in the Big Easy, or will she be crushed against something brutal and hard?

An eclectic group of adults… playing six mid-pubescents, vie for the spelling championship of a lifetime. While candidly disclosing hilarious and touching stories from their home lives, the tweens spell their way through a series of (potentially made-up) words, hoping never to hear the soul-crushing, pout-inducing, life un-affirming “ding” of the bell that signals a spelling mistake. Six spellers enter; one speller leaves a champion! At least the losers get a juice box. [Rated: PG-13]

Starts at The Contemporary Arts Center!

6-7pm Intro to Swing

For total beginners to swing dancing or dancing of any kind. Also for those looking to refresh their basics and learn some ragtime dances. We use these pre-swing era dances to teach beginners how to step on rhythm, step on rhythm while connected to another person, how to connect in order to lead or follow, you'll learn to syncopate your footwork, and then we'll slowly start to let go of one hand and create the beginnings of what will eventually be a bad-ass swing out.

7:30-8:30 Lindy Hop Vocab - Intermediate Level

This class is gonna give you some must know moves, some technique, some philosophy, and of course, we'll continue to clarify and polish up your swing outs.

No partner required to take either of these classes. Come alone or with friends!

University of Holy Cross to hold Constitutional Carry & Self Defense Class August 29

Public confusion still swirls around Louisiana’s new firearm carry laws

New Orleans – The University of Holy Cross, in conjunction with Pierre Basic Guns, is hosting two gun safety and self-defense workshops on its Algiers campus on Thursday, August 29, 2024, to help Louisiana residents and the greater UHC community better understand the nuances of the new constitutional carry laws in the State of Louisiana and how the new laws impact their rights and responsibilities. Sponsored by the United States Concealed Carry Association (USCCA), these workshops are designed to educate the public on the legal aspects of self-defense and carrying firearms.

The workshops will be held on August 29, 2024, with two available sessions: 3:30 - 5:30 p.m. or 6:00 - 8:00 p.m. Both sessions will be conducted at the University of Holy Cross Moreau Center, located at 4123 Woodland Drive in New Orleans.

Each session will last approximately two hours and is open to anyone 18 years and older who wishes to deepen their understanding of this significant legal change regarding the legalities of carrying a firearm in public.

“The need for clear and accurate information is greater than ever,” says University of Holy Cross Police Chief and Director of Public Safety Marshall E. Pierre, Sr. “We are excited to host these informational workshops so our community can feel more educated and empowered about self-defense, especially around the subject of carrying firearms.”

Participants will gain valuable insights into their rights and the best practices for responsible gun ownership and self-defense. These sessions aim to empower attendees with the knowledge needed to navigate the legal landscape confidently and responsibly.

The workshops will cover critical topics such as:

• The implications of being armed in public
• Staying safe by avoiding danger
• Pre-threat indicators
• De-escalation
• Using force
• Seeking further training
• Differences between carrying with a permit vs. without a permit in Louisiana

"I have conducted several of these events, and I've found that many participants are often unaware of the specifics of the law, including what constitutes a justified act of self-defense," says Pierre Basic, founder of Pierre Basic Guns. "One of the most surprising aspects for attendees is learning about the restriction on carrying within 1,000 feet of a school zone without a permit."

To register for a session or to learn more about the workshop series, please contact Pierre Basic Guns at (555) 123-4567 or visit their website at www.pierrebasicguns.com.
