Cuz,

Missing you and all the good times we had growing up. Summers in Gonzales, and family reunions, those were the best of times. Rest in Peace.

Gary Jude Duplessis

Growing up I spent almost every summer at Lonnie's house. He wasn't able to come to my house because he committed to playing baseball. As we grew up, working at Uncle Vernon's furniture store was added to his duties. Every year the Duplessis family had a reunion at Uncle Vernon's and when Lonnie became an  adult we had them at his house. He could cook the best jambalaya. Those were some good times. I miss Lonnie and think about him often,  remembering the best of growing up.

Lonnie, I am just learning of your passing. We worked together for several years at the Praxair Geismar facility. My friend you helped me complete so many jobs and was such a great resource. Helped me every time I needed help. Rest In Peace good friend. You touched many and will always be remembered. Thank you for being a friend and resource. Condolences  to your family. 

Lonnie was a good friend and travel buddy for years.  I liked and respected him tremendously, learned a lot from him and will never forget him.

I will always remember Lonnie.  He is family to me.  Greatly enjoyed working with him at the Geismar Praxair facility and since.  Just a very special person to me.  My extreme condolences to his family, but know that you will cherish the sweet memories and keep him alive in your hearts.  

Lonnie was an old friend from our early days at St. Theresa. I am so glad that we had the opportunity to reconnect a few years ago. My sincere condolences to his family and friends - we are diminished by his loss. May he rest in peace in God's glory !

You couldn’t ask for a better fellow. He never met a stranger , always kind hearted.  A great co- worker, always getting the job done with a smile on his face ! You will be sorely missed Mr. Lonnie. May you Find peace and rest . Tommy

Cindy,
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this time. Lonnie was a pleasure to work with, we spent many fishing and hunting trips together and he will be missed. 

Thank you my dear friend for all the times you’ve made me smile; for always being there to have my back; for all the funny and crazy trips we took shopping for the plant; being a shoulder to cry on in rough times and a laugh or two during the good times. Thank you for sharing your loving family with me as the grandchildren grew and grew. 

I will miss you Lonnie but will treasure those memories forever. Til we meet again dear friend...

Linda Roth

Lonnie was one of the kindest and most caring person s I’ve ever worked with. He always had a smile to greet you and encouraging word. He will be surely missed by his work community. RIP my friend.
