Dear Dubois family, How blessed you were to have each other these many years. We'll always remember her sweet face and ready smile. Anite Badeaux, 101 years, was always so happy to see her and be able to speak French and speak of old memories. She touched many lives and gave much loving kindness to those she met. She left a beautiful example for all of us. May you be comforted by her Faith and many warm memories. Floyd and Lois Badeaux
