My heart is heavy for my father. My father not only lost his father, but his best friend. A friend that he could call on, a man of character, a man of respect, the true description of a Father. That was my grandfather. My family will truly miss our Paw-Paw. We loved him and will never forget him. Though he is not here, he will always be in our hearts. Love, Michael & Belinda St.Romain, Adrienne, Bailey & Abi St.Romain, and the grand children, Jonas Rossyion, Gracie Lewis & Christian St.Romain.

Please accept my deepest sympathy to your family. I always admired Raymond for the care he gave his wife during her illness. I also enjoyed singing with him and working with him at St. Anthony School.

Uncle Raymond was a man of great character, knowledge and honor. He always had a big smile and a bear hug for you. He will be sorely missed by many.

Mr. St. Romain was such a wonderful teacher and a jewel of a person. He taught my mom his first year as a teacher, then later my brother and myself. I played tennis with him on many occasions in Bunkie. Absolutely loved him! He touched many, many lives. Thank you Mr. St. Romain.
