I’m a member of Bethany United Methodist Church. I have known Mrs St.Cyr for many years when she resided in New Orleans. She was a devoted and dedicated choir member. It was a delight to know her. She and her husband were fine examples of what Christians should be. I observed them as they went about their volunteer services to the church and said that seems to be a marriage made in heaven. May God rest her soul and may she rest in peace.

Mrs. St.Cyr had a quiet peaceful spirit. She was beautiful in the inside as well as the outside. She and Mr. St.Cyr were perfectly matched. I loved to see them together. He was so tall and handsome and she was beautiful and petite. A perfect couple. They were my church members and there was never a time that they didn’t greet me with love. They are together now Heaven has another angel.

I have vivid memories of Mrs. St. Cyr as a quiet and yet strong woman at Bethany United Methodist Church. She sang in the choir. She possessed a ready smile. She was available to help when needed. She was a Delta Signa Theta Soror. She will be remembered with the highest esteem.
