What a loving mother! Always doting on her kids, she continuously supported them through their school years attending their athletic ventures, tending to their needs, and cooking delicious meals. For many years, she found so much joy in her role as a switch board operator at Thibodaux Regional Medical Center. She was passionate about gardening, listening and dancing to country music, cooking, sewing, and dining at Pop’s Lil Stop in Ethel and Heads and Tails in Baton Rouge. She definitely loved Hallmark Channel especially during the holidays as well as NCIS featuring her favorite Mark Harmon. A devoted Catholic, she found peace in church often serving as a lector at St. Joseph’s Co-Cathedral when she resided in Thibodaux. Known as Ms.Willie or MawMaw Willie to so many, she always radiated love and enthusiasm to those who knew her. Many thanks to those who supported her in so many capacities over the years: Thibodaux Regional Medical Center, Baton Rouge General – Mid-City, Southside Gardens, Amber Terrace of Baton Rouge, Oakwood Village of Zachary, Council on Aging in Clinton, Zachary Manor Nursing Home, Lane Regional Medical Center, Our Lady of the Lake Regional Medical Center, and Butterfly Wing of Baton Rouge.
