Marian "Sis" Robillard

Marian “Sis” Robillard passed away on Friday, March 13, 2026, at the age of 88. She was a native of Ruleville, MS, and a resident of Baton Rouge, LA. She passed away peacefully surrounded by her loving family. She was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, daughter, sister and friend who loved her family deeply and found great joy in caring for those around her. Sis loved music, cooking, and bringing people together. Her home was always welcoming, filled with family, friends, and the smell of something good cooking. She was known for her homemade barbecue chicken and her famous lemon icebox pie, which were favorites of everyone who visited. Friends and family often gathered at her house for pots of coffee, pies, cakes, music and good conversation. Sis especially loved hosting Christmas parties where family and friends filled her home with laughter, food, and music from her jukebox. She also enjoyed watching her husband Clyde race and proudly cheering him on as he won many races. Sis had a generous heart and was happiest when she was helping and giving to others. Less than two weeks before her passing, she re-dedicated her life to Christ, bringing her great peace. She will be deeply missed.
