To all of the Bouchereau family,

My wife Terry and I extend our deepest sympathies.

I have not seen Ms. Lillian in many years but growing up in Donaldsonville and for many years after I had the opportunity to see her and her family... Ms. Lillian was always sweet and nice to me and my family... always first-class nice.

May she rest in perpetual peace after such a long and wonderful life... 101 years old.. wow.

May all of your grief evolve into a celebration of your best memories of her.
Sincerely,
Stephen & Terry deBessonet
