Antoinette and her family were charter members of the Saint Angela Merici Parish in Metairie. She grew up in the Mid-City area and attended St. Anthony of Padua School and St. Mary’s Dominican High School. She was an active member of the Padua Twenties and the Padua Partners for many years, and she was a longtime member of the Saint Angela Merici Ladies Auxiliary.

Antoinette always put faith and family first during her lifetime. She is remembered by friends and family as an outstanding hostess. For decades, her home served as headquarters for holiday events, family gatherings, picnics, birthday parties, and other extended-family activities. Every year during the Mardi Gras season, she welcomed friends and family, who filled her yard and home as they enjoyed the parades down Bonnabel Boulevard. Through the years she enjoyed a variety of activities including travel, square dancing, camping, and playing cards.

A memorial visitation and mass will be held at St Angela Merici Church, 901 Beverly Garden Dr, Metairie, La. 70002 on Saturday June 27th from 10am to 12 noon to be followed by a Funeral Mass. Burial will be in Metairie Cemetery.

The family expresses its gratitude to Barbara Walters for her loving care.
