Mrs. Hebert was a native of Iberia Parish and a resident of Youngsville. Her number one priority was her devotion to family. She was known as a pillar of the Youngsville community for many years through her work as a substitute teacher, assistant librarian, director of St Anne religious education program, leadership roles within the St Anne Ladies Altar society, and election commissioner duties. She had a passion for the Holy Eucharist and its power. She served that passion via being a lay minister and bringing the Eucharist to the shut in community of Youngsville. She was a lector at St Anne Catholic Church for many years and she was very proud to have received the Bishops Medal in 2006. Guersi spent her whole life in service of others, when she could no longer do for others physically; she asked to go home so she could help us spiritually. God granted her request a few days after she did so and for that the family praises God.  Guersi passed away Sunday, May 19, 2019 at BeeHive Homes of Youngsville.
