Judith Bouffine Obituary

Judith "Judy" Anne Chaix Bouffine entered into her eternal life on Saturday, November 26, 2016 at 66 years young. She was the daughter of the late Melvin R. Chaix, Sr. and sister of the late Melvin R. Chaix, Jr. She is survived by her loving mother, Gloria B. Chaix; her two daughters, Christi Bouffine Gussoni (Kellie) and Misti Bouffine; her grandson, Cody Bouffine (Coco) and her granddaughter, Shana Clark (Princess). Judy was a hard worker in her younger years at the Harahan Playground for many years and also as a child care worker. She was a loving and caring mother and grandmother who tried her best at everything. She was also very stubborn and did things her own way. She was one-of-a-kind for sure. She enjoyed being outdoors, doing crossword puzzles, coloring and making confetti. We will miss her so much, but we know she is truly happy and healthy in Heaven. Family and friends are welcome to attend a Memorial Service on Saturday, December 10, 2016 at the Harahan Playground, 6601 10th Street in Harahan, LA starting promptly at 10:00 am. Feel free to text or call Christi at 504-432-4799 for any information. In lieu of flowers, please make any donations to the American Lung Association or the Animal Rescue New Orleans in our mom's name. "But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength, they shall mount up with wings as eagles, they shall run, and not be weary, and they shall walk and not faint." -Isaiah 40:31.

To Christi and Family,
I wish there was enough room on this page to share the many memories that I shared with your mother. Luckily, your mom and I always had one thing in common, GREAT PARENTS. We had the best set of parents that any two girls could ever ask for in life. Our fathers were selfless and loved Dixie Beer. Our mothers were accomplished home makers and adored the ground that our fathers walked on. It made life very good for me and your mom. We thrived as the Chaix princesses in the Louisiana territories known as Buck and Blackie for a very long time. The other part of the equation that gave your mom and I extra advantages was the greatest Grandmother in the world. We knew her as Cha Cha, other knew her as Lucille.. Our homes were shared on a daily basis and we spent holidays together without fail. Your mom and I shared a wonderful family existence and we believed in the meaning and value of family. Unfortunately, life changes and there comes a time when life is not the way we once knew it. This holiday your mom will be spending it elsewhere. I feel lucky to still have my dear Aunt and I am so glad your mom will get to spend it in our families future home located high in the heavens. This holiday she will be surrounded with family love and eternal love for eternity.
Love, Aunt Joy & Uncle Elvin

Dear Family,
The loss of a mother is a deep and difficult challenge at any time in one's life, but during the Holiday Season it is especially difficult. I know your mother hopes that each of you will focus on the good times that were had between you and her throughout her lifetime. She would also wish that each of you will experience feelings of joy, happiness and peace throughout your lives. I would also think that her last and final wish would be that everyone watches over Aunt Gloria and makes sure the care that she receives is loving, genuine and gentle. My memories of your mother will remain forever bright!! Remember, just because we cannot bring our loved ones back, they can live in our memories. Please be strong and keep Christ in your heart and Christmas.
Sincerely, Nancy Chaix
