Cecile was employed as a Senior Consulting Specialist with Oilwell Tubular Consultants, Inc, working for Shell Oil. She loved her job and was very proud to represent them.

She is survived by her longtime friend, Sabria Barber; brothers, Harmon "Hal" LaCombe and Zeb LaCombe; nephews, Chad LaCombe and Ryan LaCombe and sister-in-law, Donna LaCombe. She was preceded in death by her parents, Horace "ToTo" LaCombe and Odette A. LaCombe and her brother, Timothy W. LaCombe. The family requests that visiting hours be observed at Delhomme Funeral Home - Bertrand on Sunday, August 26, 2018, from 10:00AM to 8:00PM. A recitation of the Rosary will be held Sunday evening at 6:00PM at the funeral home. Visiting hours will continue on Monday from 8:00AM until the time of service. Honorary Pallbearers will be Harmon "Hal" LaCombe, Zeb LaCombe, Chad LaCombe Ryan LaCombe and William Picard. The family would like to thank the nurses and staff of the Heart Hospital of Lafayette for all of their wonderful care and compassion. Personal condolences may be sent to the LaCombe family at www.delhommefuneralhome.com. Delhomme Funeral Home, 1011 Bertrand Drive, Lafayette, LA is in charge of funeral arrangements.

May God comfort you in these difficult times. Cecile's contributions to the oilfield and her dedication to excellence were rivaled only by her unshakable character. On the behalf of Redfish Rental, we could never thank her enough for her help in shaping our quality control program. She was one of a kind and will be missed.
~God bless
