She quickly developed a large circle of friends that became her extended family. That circle included the Masciarellas, the Highland Beach Crew, Ray and Charlotte Roberts, Dave Mirage and many more. She thoroughly enjoyed being so close to the ocean. Later in her life, she reacquainted with her high school friends, otherwise known as the “YaYas”, and they enjoyed many fun trips and time spent together. After twenty years of living near her beloved ocean, she returned to her hometown of Rayne. She wanted to be near her family as she faced a tough battle with cancer. She was so pleased to be home and closer to her precious granddaughter, Eleanor Rose. Friends will be received at Gossen Funeral Home, Inc., Rayne, LA.
