A proud veteran of the United States Army, Dudley consistently dedicated himself to both his family, local community, state and nation. He literally wore numerous hats in his constant service. His life was well lived and his time well spent as the Commander of the American Legion Landry-Domingue Post 328 for which he always participated at District, State, and National Conventions. Dudley was also a loyal dual member of the Doric Lodge 87 & Master of Ascension Lodge 251 Free and Accepted, as well as a proud Shriner for the ACACIA Temple St. Mary Shrine Club, a 40/8 Grand Correspondent on the Local and State Level and the Sous Directeur VAVS. To ensure he kept busy doing good deeds, he was also an active AARP Chapter 5033 Member, and a vital member of the Pierre Part Belle River Museum Group. Filled with a deep faith, Dudley also was a steadfast member of St. Joseph the Worker Catholic Church where he often was seen serving as an usher. After his retirement at Triad Nitrogen, Dudley began the career of his dreams with the Veterans Affairs as a Veteran Assistant Counselor. His family is deeply proud of all Dudley's accomplishments and his servant's heart.
