Gift Bearers will be his children. Mr. Molbert or "Lou Lou" as he was known to his relatives and many friends was a silent humanitarian whose love and many acts of good deeds; whether it be for a friend or stranger, were kept as close to his heart as the deep love and care he always had for his family. Mr. Molbert was always willing to help others in need. From the sharing of things he could afford to performing service work at no charge to a customer in need. The many acts of kindness Mr. Molbert performed in his long and full lifetime may never be fully known. The family of Mr. Molbert would like to share a couple of examples of some of his many acts of kindness. From the time he helped an elderly lady remove items from her clothesline right before a thunderstorm to the time he purchased a bicycle as a Christmas present for a young man he once gave a ride to just so that person would have an easier way to get to work. On several occasions Mr. Molbert would tell his wife that If I were a millionaire, I would have quickly become poor because I would have given it all away. He was the sole proprietor of Anthony Molbert's Appliance Repair for more than forty years, a parishioner of St. Bernard Catholic Church, a former member of the Louisiana National Guard and the founder and member of the group he shared coffee with, the Beltways Boys Club. Mr. Molbert was quick to share a smile or a joke with everyone he met. Mr. Anthony was also blessed to have shared his last good years on this earth with his loving wife Joyce. She was his best friend and caregiver. Survivors include his wife, Joyce Molbert of Breaux Bridge; his sons, Darrel Molbert and his wife, Vickie of San Antonio, TX, Donald Molbert and his wife, Bonita of Jackson, TN, Lieutenant Colonel Harold Molbert and his wife, Karen of Fredericksburg, VA, and Carroll Molbert and his wife, Jennifer of Arnaudville; his daughter, Charleen Huval of Breaux Bridge; his sisters, Mae Joyce Theriot of Breaux Bridge and Vivian Castille of Stephensville, MD; his sister-in-law, Joan Molbert of Breaux Bridge; his grandchildren, Travis Huval, Laurie Brasseaux, Valerie Molbert, Elizabeth Molbert, Alex Molbert, Michael Molbert, Justin Molbert, Maegan Junca; and his great grandchildren, Layne Brasseaux, Layla Brasseaux and Zachary Latiolais, Jr..
