A native and lifelong resident of Loreauville, Mrs. Broussard passed away on Thursday, November 18, 2021 with her family by her side.

In 1943 upon graduating from high school at the age of 17, Anne worked at DeGravelle Hardware for a short period of time until Stanley “Put” Ransonet offered her transportation to work in Lake Charles for Kellog Construction, a defense plant during World War II.  She joined Stanley’s two sisters, T-May and Deed and her sister Beatrice who also worked in Lake Charles.

When that job was completed she came back home to Loreauville and worked for Rose Dental Laboratory until her marriage to her husband, Lloyd in 1946. After five years of marriage she worked for Iberia Sugar Cooperative in New Iberia.  After fourteen years there, she accepted a job from Roy Breaux, Sr., owner of Breaux’s Bay Craft Inc. as his Executive Secretary.  After Roy’s death in 1991, she continued her work at Breaux’s Bay Craft for Roy’s children, Royce and Roy Jr., until her retirement in 2012.  She and her husband opened Loreauville Ventures in 1972.  Mrs. Broussard would often go to work and then do the books for Loreauville Ventures at night and during the weekend.

She was a past member of the Junior Catholic Daughters, the Altar Society, and the Blue Army.  Anne loved festivals, trail rides, and line dancing. She never missed a good party.  She enjoyed being a grandmother; Attending ball games for the grandchildren and great grandchildren was a joy in her life.  Finding her and Lloyd dancing in the kitchen was just a normal day in their home.  She was a devout Catholic, parishioner at St. Joseph Catholic Church, and was a volunteer for the adoration chapel.
