It is said that a mother's love is immeasurable and this is the kind of love we were blessed to have and feel every day of our lives. God gave us an Angel on earth and now He has one more angel in Heaven. She was Senior Class President and Salutatorian of the Sunset High class of 1959, but her legacy was the love she showed to everyone she met. After graduation, she worked as a medical records secretary for Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital until her 2nd child was born, then she devoted her life to raising and taking care of her children and grandchildren who were her pride and joy. She had the biggest heart, the softest voice and the most comforting touch. Her sweet smile would light up a room. She was so faithful to God and lived life as He instructs us to live, totally selfless and always loving and caring for others. She loved working in her yard and cooking for her family, especially on Sundays when every Sunday was like a Thanksgiving feast. She also enjoyed taking trips with her children and looked forward to any occasion to celebrate and have a party. She always strived to make our lives happy and fun. No matter our age, she always planned a big birthday party and still made Easter baskets for all of her children. She loved to bring her grandchildren for an afternoon treat, whether it be a snowball, ice cream, or snack. God truly blessed our family with the very best wife, mother and grandmother and she will be forever missed and cherished. She is survived by her loving husband of 58 years, Lynwood J. Broussard; her children, Sharon Broussard, Bennett Broussard, Brent Broussard and his wife Nicole, Sheri Everett and her husband Chris, and Shelley Broussard and her husband Clarke Moore; her grandchildren, Morgan, Alayna and Ross Broussard and Jacob Everett. She was preceded in death by her parents, Athanase and Adele Meche Comeaux, her sister, Winona "Winnie" Comeaux and her godchild, Charlotte Comeaux Foley. A heartfelt appreciation is extended by the Broussard family to Dr. Lauren Zatarain, the doctors and staff of Our Lady of the Lake Regional Medical Center in Baton Rouge, Dr. Michael Alexander and Dr. Jody Rossen for their exceptional care of Mrs. Marie.
