Georgie Spell Fontenot, 73, was a lifelong resident of Moss Bluff. She was a member of St. Theodore Catholic Church, where she faithfully attended 8:30 Mass. She had a zest for life, never met a stranger, and everyone in her life knew they were loved. Her joys were fishing, cooking and her family, especially taking the grandkids out on the river. She was currently working for Calcasieu Parish School Board at Moss Bluff Middle School for 13 years. She would never let anyone go hungry and will be remembered for her selfless nature; She liked doing for others more than doing for herself.
She was preceded in death by her brothers, Joseph Spell, Jr. "Sonny", Winford Spell, Alvin Spell, and Enos Paul "Nicky" Spell.
Left to cherish her memory are her children, Kevin Kelly Fontenot and wife Rochelle of Reno, NV and Angie Fontenot Bonvillain and husband Jerry of Moss Bluff; grandchildren, Josh Viator, Adam Viator, Breanna Bonvillain, Forest Johnson, and Austin Johnson and his wife Stephanie; great grandchildren, Scarlet Rose Johnson and Aiden Rochelle Johnson ; and numerous nieces, nephews, extended family members and her beloved work family.
