You are a member,
not a customer
WEST SIDE JOURNAL • JULY 7, 2016

That’s the co-op difference!
BY JOANIE BISHOP
POINTE COUPEE ELECTRIC
Many businesses use the
word “member” to describe
their customers.
Places like Sam’s Club or
Costco and even American
Express like to refer to their
customers as members. You
pay a fee to buy their goods
and services, but that is really
all you get for the “membership.”
No right to vote for the
Board of Directors or to participate in any meaningful way in
the organization.
In cooperatives like Pointe
Coupee Electric, membership
really does mean something
more than just the right to buy
electricity. Co-ops of all types
are founded on seven cooperative principles that give us
guidance and strategic direction. Membership also gives
you rights as an owner of this
co-op.
Brett Fairbairn is the director of the Center for the Study
of Co-operatives at the
University of Saskatchewan in
Canada. He makes the case
that member relations is not
just part of what co-ops should
be doing, but in fact is the fundamental core business of the
cooperative.
He further lays out the three
strategic concepts that any coop must get right in order to
survive and thrive:
Economic linkage
Pointe Coupee Electric is
connected to you. There is a
business relationship that
serves you (the member) and
the co-op. Since co-ops are
solely owned by people in the
community, they have a mutual interest to ensure that both
the co-op and the member do
well and prosper.
Transparency
As an owner of the co-op,
you have a right to know how
it operates and how decisions
are made that directly impact
you. If the co-op is transparent
and combines this trait with
integrity and fairness, it will
build trust with the members.
Cognition
In this case, cognition is
best defined as how your coop thinks. It includes the current and historical identity, the
mission and the sense of
shared values with co-op
members. Research, education
and training are critical functions that Pointe Coupee
Electric must conduct on an
ongoing basis to ensure that
we always have the best information to make decisions.
The cooperative business
model is the best one on earth,
but like any enterprise, it is up
to the human beings who work
at the co-op, who serve on the
board and the members like
you to ensure that the principles and values do not fade
over time.
First and foremost, Pointe
Coupee Electric strives to be
thought of as a member-owned
cooperative that gives you the
best value of any utility. If we
succeed, our community
thrives and you will always
value being a member – not a
customer.

Lawrence Michael "Boo" Santangelo
January 25, 1947 - July 1, 2016 . . .
Press Him in my name and kiss His fine
head for me and ask him to return the
Kiss when I draw my dying breath. St.
Joseph, Patron of departing souls - Pray
for me. "Boo" died peacefully at his
home surrounded by his wife and sons
on Friday, July 1, 2016 at 4:20 p.m. He
faced his 6 month battle with AML
(Acute Myeloid Leukemia) as he lived
his life: strongly, courageously, head-on
and with no fear, for Our Lord Jesus
Christ, was with him and in him.
Memorial Services will be held on
Thursday, July 7, 2016, at St. John the
Evangelist Catholic Church in
Plaquemine from 10:00 a.m. until 12:00
noon Mass of Christian Burial with
Father Jason Palermo. "Boo" retired
from Union Texas Petroleum after 32
years at the age of 50, achieving his
main goal, a long retirement, after the
death of his father, who retired at 62 and
died at 66. He was a native of
Plaquemine, born to Mike Marion
Santangelo and Vita (Rita) Gulotta
Santangelo. "Boo" attended St. John
Elementary and High School where he
excelled at football, baseball, basketball
and track and "not too shabby grades".
Michael learned a strong work ethic at a
young age, by hand pushing a lawn
mower from their old home on Haase
Street to new property on Chinn Street
cutting grass before going to any ball
practice. He also enjoyed assisting and
coaching K.C. Summer Baseball, St.
John 5th and 6th graders, especially
beating Holy Family for the Bowl
Game. He delighted in watching both
sons play and excel in sports at St. John
High. But his biggest pleasure was
watching his granddaughters whether
they were dancing ballet to Swan Lake
or playing soccer and basketball for
Madisonville Youth Teams. Michael was
a true man's man, but never hesitated to
put on a pink tutu and 'dance like no
one's watching' with his granddaughters.
The girls even concocted their own
moisture cream to rub his feet when they
stayed over! "Boo" married Juanita
Annette Bourg, April 17th, 1971 and had
just recently celebrated their 45th wedding anniversary. He is survived by their
two sons: Michael Lance Santangelo
married to Katie Conner and living in
Madisonville, LA., and Michael Blake
Santangelo married to Katie Daire living
in Brusly, LA. and four beautiful granddaughters: Reece (12), Remy (8) and
Rowan (3) all of Madisonville, LA., and
Sophia (2) of Brusly. Also survived by
sister and brother-in-law: Frances
(Butsy) Santangelo LeBlanc and Larry
LeBlanc of Plaquemine, LA; and sisterin-law, Karin Poole Santangelo of New
Roads, LA; sister-in-law, Judy Jones,
brothers-in-law Kurt and Mark Bourg
and their wives Connie and Cindy, and
Pete Jones, all of Port Allen, LA., along
with numerous nieces and nephews as
well as great nieces and nephews, "Boo"
was preceded in death by his parents; a
brother, Anatole (Nat) Santangelo and a
nephew, Clint Santangelo. Readers in
Mass will be his daughters-in-law. His
sons and granddaughters will serve as
giftbearers along with Joseph "Rabbit"
Calcagno. Avid outdoorsman that he
was, "Boo" hunted a lease in the Hill
Country of Texas with fellow retiree and
his brothers. He considered, The Tauzins
- Don and Jean, Mike and Norma, Terry
and Debbie, Wayne and Mary, and
Kevin and Monica, all of the Lafayette
area, as part of his extended family.
Honorary Pallbearers will be Rick Gros
and Cully Bourg. In lieu of flowers
please "Give the Gift of Life" if you are
able to. Michael used over 50 units of
blood and/or platelets during his illness.
