Payment Methods

Payments methods include PayPal and Credit cards.

PayPal is a safer, easier way to send and receive money online. When you select PayPal as the payment method, you will be linked to the PayPal site where you can make payment.

PayPal can be used to purchase items by Credit Card (Visa, MasterCard, Discover, and American Express), Debit Card, or E-check (i.e. using your regular Bank Account).

1) After viewing your items on your shopping cart page, you can click and check out with PayPal. Then you will leave our site and enter PayPal’s website.
2) You can sign in to your PayPal account, or you can create a new one if you haven’t got one.
3) You can use the PayPal as you want according to the on-screen instructions.

Usually, PayPal e-check will take 3-5 business days to be confirmed by PayPal.

The reasons why we suggest you use PayPal:
Payment is traceable. By using your PayPal account, you can trace the status of your payment.
When you make payment for your order, you don’t need to use your credit card online (you can transfer directly from your bank account). When you use your credit card through PayPal, nobody will see your credit card number, which will minimize the risk of unauthorized use.

Early Years

David Guyce LeDoux was born in Church Point, Louisiana, in 1926. In 1938, he and his family relocated to Pineville, Louisiana. It was in Pineville that David completed high school and, at just 15 years old, enrolled at Louisiana College. After two years of study, he joined the U.S. Navy, serving for two years in Naval Aviation during World War II. Upon his return to civilian life, he completed his Bachelor of Arts degree at Louisiana College, taking advantage of the G.I. Bill to finance his education. He then spent a year at the University of Chattanooga (now the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga) before pursuing graduate studies at Louisiana State University (LSU). David earned his Master of Arts degree at LSU and subsequently served as an instructor for several years, sharing his knowledge and passion for learning with students.
