I wanted to tell each of my cousins just how much we will miss their parents! What happiness they added to our family over the last decades, and they were the "Rock" of our family! Even though they had such a wonderful life, we are still sad that they will not be with us, but what beautiful memories we all have! I will never forget them, and will always admire the devotion they had for their family! You will be missed! Love you forever, Cheryl

Earl & Mildred were very dear friends. I am so sorry that I was unable to be near at the time of their passing. They will, both, be sincerely missed. Much gratitude to the family for keeping me informed. God bless all of you...Jean Gaudin.

My Aunt Millie and Uncle Earl were one of the happiest couples I've ever known and I have told their love story many times over the years. They were blessed with three wonderful sons along with all of my additional cousins whom I love very much. Uncle Earl was a wonderful role model to everyone and my favorite Uncle. We were blessed to have him in our lives and now he is with his sweetheart again. What a blessed life they both had.

One of my favorite photos of Papa and Granny, this is how I will remember them forever!

Papa, Granny and family, I'm really sorry I can't make it to Texas. I would love to be there, not to mourn but to celebrate Papa and Granny's beautiful and loving life together. Thinking about Papa and Granny, it was always Papa and Granny, together, I can't remember them ever being apart. Now that Papa and Granny are together again, I know it was meant to be and that is what will help me through this. I will miss ya'll forever and I hope you know that you were a huge influence on my life and have always meant the world to me, you were the most amazing grandparents and the most inspirational couple to myself and many others.

Love to all from Jarrod

We met Mr. Guidry a few years back when living next door to Troy and Linde. He was a grand and noble man as I remember and a friend as soon as you met him. I am not actually saddened as I know he is with the heavenly Father now. But to his family we share our thoughts and prayer.

I feel blessed to have gotten to know Papa Guidry and that he got to know his Great Grandson CJ. I will remember him as a very kind man enjoying his Louisiana surroundings and working on his tractor and four wheeler. Most of all I remember both Granny and Papa Guidry watching CJ dance to the zydeco music, and sitting on their porch. Loved his accent and smile. We will miss our visits to Louisiana, but will hold on to our great memories.

We were very sad to hear of Papa's death when Linde called us Friday night. We are sorry we cannot make it to the family gathering and service. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family.
God bless you all.

I am so sorry to learn of Earl's passing! He and your Mom were so kind and loving to me, and checked on me several times after my husband passed.

My thoughts and prayers are with the family, but my smiles are with Mildred and Earl...together again in perfect love.
