A native of Morgan City and resident of Jeanerette, Marie passed away at 6:58 a.m. on Friday, January 21, 2022, at her son’s home.

Marie loved her children, 32 grandchildren and 50 great-grandchildren. She was a child of the Great Depression and World War II. She lived with joy, peaceful continence and saw the humor in the most trying times of life. She would often remind her family, “We’re not in control, He is.”

She was a very devout Catholic, a member of the church choir and the rosary group. As a mother of ten children, she enjoyed cooking and spending time at their camp in the Atchafalaya Basin. Most of all she loved the dogs she cared for.

Hebert (Jennifer); her puppies Lil Miss and Bae Bae; 32 grandchildren; and 50 great-grandchildren.
