Her kindness and loving soul flowed to all she met. She was a mother to five children and one granddaughter. She retired from Pinecrest State School after 14 years of service to the children.

Guidroz of New Iberia, Gabreiale D. Loden (Patrick) of Alexandria; granddaughter, Dolly E. Rousseau of Alexandria; one brother, John David Bernard (Cherie) of Shreveport; fourteen grandchildren; sixteen great grandchildren.

Pallbearers will be Charles Rousseau, Jr., Daniel Rousseau, Thomas Rousseau, CJ Benjamin, Johnny Bernard and Patrick Loden; honorary pallbearers will be Andrew Moreau, Bryan Klibert and Jordan Morgan.
