Dr. Luke Chachere had the program and gave the Rotarians a glimpse of Dayton History. He brought the story of his father, Mr. L. J. Chachere to the club. Luther Joseph (L.J.) Chachere was born in Orchard, Tx in 1932 where he grew up and graduated from Orchard High School in 1950. He graduated from Sam Houston State University with his Bachelor of Science degree in 1954. L.J. moved to Dayton after getting his Masters in 1955 as a vocational agriculture teacher at Dayton High School. He married Jonnie Lea Belt in 1957 and together they raised five children (Luke, Rob, Matt, Jeff, and Nanette). He founded the Dayton Young Farmers Chapter in 1959. He was awarded the Area IX Outstanding Young Farmer and received the Honorary Lone Star Farmer Degree and the Honorary American Farmer Degree. In 1963, Chachere founded the Chachere Feed Store. In addition to being a feed dealer, he was a rancher and hay producer. Although his career took his life in another direction from being an AG teacher, his commitment to Dayton ISD and his community did not stop. L.J. served on the DISD Board of Trustees from 1976-1991. In 2004, Mr. Chachere was a recipient of the Dayton ISD’s Wall of Fame. The Dayton FFA Livestock Show dedicated the 2016 show to Mr. Chcachere.
