		John Julian McKeithen was born on May 28, 1918, in Grayson, Louisiana, in Caldwell Parish to Jesse J. and DeEtte Eglin McKeithen.

		McKeithen died on June 4, 1999, at the age of 81, in his hometown of Columbia, and is buried there.

		The building of the Superdome in New Orleans was greeted by its share of naysayers, but McKeithen's determination prevailed, and the Superdome became one of Louisiana's greatest economic investments in history, generating millions of dollars annually for the economies of both New Orleans and the state.
		It was in the field of race relations, however, that McKeithen displayed the unique brand of statesmanship that set him apart from other Southern governors of the period.
		McKeithen's accomplishments during his first term did not go unnoticed by the state's electorate, which, late in his initial term, approved a constitutional amendment allowing governors to serve consecutive terms.

		The respect and admiration I have for Dave Dixon and the late Gov. John McKeithen have risen to a new level over the past week.
		My understanding is that while Gov. McKeithen lay near death in the hospital, his son, Secretary of State Fox McKeithen, went to Gov. Foster with the request: “My father is dying.
		Because there is a time limit for introducing bills in the Senate, and time had expired before McKeithen died, Ewing had to attach his bill onto another that was already before the Senate (this ploy is termed piggybacking).
