Thelma loved praying her Rosary, watching every New Orleans Saints game and keeping scores, reading the newspaper, sewing, making crafts, cooking her special Cajun meals, making desserts, line dancing, playing rummy, and Pedro, and playing Scrabble with her children and grandchildren. She was known as the Scrabble Queen among family members as she beat everyone knowing every word in the dictionary. She enjoyed the Neal Ransonet Senior Center. She was especially proud of the many achievements of her grandchildren and would tell everyone that they all took after her. She thoroughly enjoyed the moments she spent with all her family and friends. She was also a parishioner of Sacred Heart Church in Montegut.
The family wishes to thank the Cardiovascular Institute of the South (Dr. William Ladd and Dr. Richard Abben) for the many years of care, Mary Bird Perkins Cancer Center (Dr. Robert Gamble), family Physician Dr. Russell Henry, and Hospice of South Louisiana for their care. Thank you also to the Rev. John S. Nambusseril for his visits and prayer services and special thanks to Orelle Nixon for her kindness and loving care.
