Marie F. Duhon

Marie F. Duhon passed on to eternal life on September 14, 2019, at the age of 90 years. She was preceded in death by her husband, Wilfred Duhon and her great-granddaughter, Amanda Duhon. She is survived by her brother Henry Fleetwood, Jr. (Mary) and sister, Lorraine Von Behren (Karl). Marie was a loving mother to Michael S. Duhon (Nancy) and Robert W. Duhon (Susan). She will always be remembered by her adoring grandchildren: Michael S. Duhon, Jr. (Rebecca), Samantha D. McCandless (Eric), and Christopher S. Duhon (Sommer). Marie will be forever missed by her great-grandchildren: Hannah, Gabriel, Haven, Peyton, and Austin Duhon, and Kenneth McCandless. Additionally, Marie's joy of being a grandmother and great-grandmother extended to her adopted grandchildren: Joseph Catchot, III, Ashley Boudreaux, (Jeffrey), and adopted great-grandchildren: Mason, Bailey and Ariel Boudreaux.

Marie was devoted to her family and unselfishly cared for those persons God placed in her life. Her wonderful gift of baking was shared with anyone who asked for her cakes, petit fours, and fruitcake cookies. However, Marie's baking talents were not to be surpassed by her Cajun culinary skills in preparing such memorable palates as gumbo, crawfish bisque, bushaloni, oyster soup, and kidney stew, to name a few. Her crocheting ability will be her legacy and testament to the love Marie had for her family and friends.

Relatives and friends of the family are invited to attend a visitation on September 21, 2019, at ST. BERNARD MEMORIAL FUNERAL HOME, 701 W. VIRTUE STREET, in Chalmette, from 11:00 AM - 1:00 PM, with a funeral mass in her memory at 1:00 PM. She will be laid to rest in St. Bernard Memorial Gardens.
