Funeral services for Peggy Ann Sullivan Modisette will be held on Monday, June 9, 2025, at 10:00 a.m. in the Chapel of Kilpatrick’s Rose Neath Funeral Home in Minden, Louisiana, with a visitation beginning at 9:00 a.m.
Peggy was born on October 12, 1931, in Minden to Joy Landers Sullivan and John Sullivan and passed away peacefully on Thursday, June 5, 2025, at the remarkable age of 93.
If you knew Peggy, you knew she worked hard, always had a project, could cook anything, and loved being with people. She truly never met a stranger. She and Wayne loved to travel in their RV and listen to music. She drove many miles to visit her grandchildren, a testament to her boundless love and devotion. Peggy's career included roles as the manager of Modisette Builders & Supply in the 1950s, the owner of the Sarepta Drive-In in the mid-1960s, and the manager of the Quality Stamp store in Springhill during the 1970s.
She is preceded in death by her beloved husband, Wayne Modisette; her daughter, Carmen Joy Rainwater; and her grandson, Tripp Burns.
Left to cherish her memory are her children, Harold Modisette (Jeanne), Tim Rainwater, and Sarah Haynes (Gary), along with her adopted daughters, Margie Parnell (Billy) and Rose Carter. Peggy was a very proud grandmother of Zane Modisette (Stephanie), Kyle Peek (Denni), Myranda Ulmer (Dustin), Walker Haynes (Kati), and Whittney Burns (Pepper). Her great-grandchildren include Malerie (Cody), Trisha (Seth), Morgan (Cade), Addy, Lunden, Kannan, Maverick, Waylon, Louise, and Ivy. Her legacy continues through her great-great-grandchildren, Molly, Lilly, Lane, Cove, and Valley.
Honoring her as pallbearers will be Zane Modisette, Kyle Peek, Walker Haynes, Pepper Burns, Dustin Ulmer, and Dakota Haynes.
In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to your local church, First Baptist Church Minden, or St. Jude’s Children's Research Hospital. Peggy's compassionate spirit and loving nature touched many lives and will be remembered fondly by all who knew her.
