Funeral services were held today for Dr. Andrew Jerome Price, 60, prominent Gulfport dentist, who died at his home on 15th street and 21st avenue in Gulfport late Saturday afternoon following an extended illness.
Native of Brandon, Dr. Price came to Gulfport in 1907 to practice his profession and had been a practicing dentist here since that time. Graduate of the New Orleans School of Dentistry and the Louisiana College of Dentistry, Dr. Price practiced for three years in D'Lo before coming to Bay St. Louis in 1905 and to Gulfport the following year.
Member of the First Baptist Church in Gulfport, where he had been a member for more than 30 years, Dr. Price was active in religious, fraternal and civic circles on the Coast. He was a Mason, a Shriner, a Knights Templar and member of the Council and was an active member of the State and American Dental Associations.
He married Miss Misia (sic Missie) Naor (sic Nair) May of D'Lo in 1908 after establishing his practice in Gulfport. In addition to his wife, he is survived by a son, Andrew J. May Jr., and two daughters, Mrs. William Hewes and Mrs. R.I. Bradford, all of Gulfport, and three sisters, Mrs. W. A. Kennedy, D'Lo, Mrs. J.V. Gates, Potee, Tex., and Mrs. John Paschal, Walnut Grove, Miss.
The funeral services were held at 10 o'clock this morning at the residence with Rev. P. S. Dodge, pastor of Grace Memorial Baptist Church, presiding and burial was in Evergreen Cemetery. The large attendance at the funeral rites and the hundreds of floral offerings attested to the popularity of Dr. Price in Gulfport and along the Coast. Pallbearers were Drs. R.E.L. Stuart, O.C. Harper, J.W. Harper, Brown Rodgers, Walter Peat and J.T. Taylor and David Miller and Emerich Ritter.
