Susan Juneau Lambert

1949 - 2022

Susan transitioned to her new life on Tuesday, February 14, 2022 at 6:49 p.m. She believed that one's year of birth and death were not as important as the "dash" in between the two, and she lived her "dash" to the fullest. She was a devoted daughter to her parents, Bobbie and Millie Juneau; a loving mother to her three children, Erin Mayeux (Philip) of Granbury, Texas; Brad (Amy) and Dane (Erin) Lambert; a fun Nana to her grandchildren, Brennan and Emma Grace Lambert and Cole Mayeux, a faithful wife to her husband of 54 years, Lionel Lambert, and a loyal and selfless friend to many. Susan was educated by the School Sisters of Notre Dame and worked under the leadership of the Sisters of St. Joseph. Both of these groups of women helped shape the woman Susan became. She attended LSU and taught in Baton Rouge Catholic Schools for 30 years. She had an insatiable thirst for learning and was courageous in her stance against injustices, big or small. Susan was animated, passionate, witty, and never asked anyone to do something that she was not willing to do herself. She was known for her recycling efforts to the point of becoming the family joke. She served on the Parish Council at several local Catholic churches and on the School Board of a local Catholic high school. She could be seen volunteering at the Greater Baton Rouge Food Bank, where she also worked part time for the past eight years, St. Vincent de Paul, The Red Shoes or wherever there was a need. Susan loved watching baseball and spent hundreds of hours supporting her two sons and grandson during their baseball careers. She was a longtime LSU baseball season ticket holder and often said "Baseball at the Box" was her therapy. She loved hearing people's stories and was a student of history and politics. Susan spent her latter years involved with The Red Shoes, growing her own spiritual life while helping to make other women's lives better too. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations can be made to The Red Shoes, 2303 Government Street, Baton Rouge, Louisiana 70806.
