Deborah Thatcher Roux, age 64, entered eternal peace with her Lord in the comfort of her home Friday, May 20, 2016 after a brave battle with cancer. Debbie was a graduate of Louisiana State University with a degree in education and was a teacher in Jefferson Parish for 22 years. She served with Campus Crusade for Christ for 6 years and continued her devotion to ministry throughout her life as a dedicated member of Berean Bible Church in Algiers. Family and friends were Debbie’s passion and joy. She also enjoyed singing in church and cheering for LSU sports teams. She is survived by her husband of 35 years, Thomas Jude Roux, and her children, Rebecca Roux Esposito (husband Joseph) and David Paul Roux. Debbie was the daughter of the late Douglas Wagner Thatcher and Marjorie Thatcher DiLosa and the sister of the late Roger T. Saucier (wife Anita). She is also survived by nieces and nephews.
Special thanks to the Berean Bible Church family, West Jefferson Cancer Center, and the caregivers from Heart of Hospice.
