Remembering the Life of Andrew Moran

In Derry, Louisiana, on a small tenant farm tended by his parents, Tony and Zarada, Andrew Moran was born in a modest house situated in a cotton field. Andrew spent his early years assisting his parents with the tasks associated with rural life: caring for livestock, hogs and chickens; and picking cotton, digging potatoes and pulling corn. He later drove a light truck on the Magnolia plantation where his father worked as a cowboy. When he wasn’t working on the farm, he attended primary school in Cloutierville, a few miles from his home.
