She was 87. A native of Bunkie, La., and a longtime resident of Theriot, she worked for the Terrebonne Parish Library for many years and drove the Bookmobile for 10 years.

One of the sweetest and most positive people you would ever meet and a friend to all who knew her. Her favorite job was being a wife and mother.
She is survived by her daughter, Becky Lyons Robertson; her grandson Michael Paul Lyons; step grandchildren Jonathan, Laura, Cassandra and Larry; 13 step-grandchildren and numerous nieces and nephews and their families.
