Susan's greatest joy in life was serving others. She loved traveling, sewing, tackling various DIY projects, and watching football. As a nurse, she worked with compassion and tenderness. In her spare time, Susan thought of ways to help those less fortunate than herself, even as she fought her own battles. As a mother, she gave wisdom and love, and treasured every moment she spent with her family and friends. Her grace and strength are what those close to her will remember most.
She is survived by her daughters, Brandi Latiolais and husband Kelly of Cecilia and Leah Richard and husband Joshua of Breaux Bridge; son, Bradley Decoux, Jr. of Church Point; sister, Glenda Latiolais and husband Kelsie of Breaux Bridge; and grandchildren, Shaelyn, Zoie, Allie, Kaylee, and Ellie.
She was preceded in death by mother, Mary Lou Hebert Boudreaux; father, Dieu Donne Boudreaux; sister, Elaine Richard; and grandson, Zachary Decoux.
Pallbearers will be Joshua Richard, Kelly Latiolais, Bradley Decoux Sr., Bradley Decoux Jr., Joseph "Bobby" Richard, and Kelsie Latiolais.
