Lottie Jane LeBlanc

DELCAMBRE — Lottie Jane LeBlanc, age 83, passed away on Monday, May 9, 2022 with her family and friends by her side. She was born on October 23, 1938 and was a lifelong resident of the Town of Delcambre.
Lottie worked as a school teacher for thirty-five years before retiring in 1997. She taught at Catholic High, Mount Carmel, and spent her remaining years teaching in Delcambre. Lottie was witty, selfless, and never met a stranger. Her love for life, travel, family, and friends is what we all will remember most about her. You could often find Lottie in previous years cooking for family and a host of friends almost daily, but lately, everyone met up with her during her multiple daily visits to Shawn’s in Delcambre. There, she visited with friends and former students, picked on the workers, and sometimes helped stock shelves. Lottie was a proud member of St. Anne’s Society.
Lottie is survived by her niece, Cathy Broussard and a host of great nieces, nephews, and godchildren that she loved and spoiled as her own children. She is also survived by lots of cousins, neighbors, and friends that are too many to name but hold a special place in her heart.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Elina and Peignaur LeBlanc; and her sisters, Beverly LeBlanc and Merline “Buddy” LeBlanc; her brother-in-law Joe LeBlanc; and her nephew Irvin LeBlanc, Jr.
A gathering of family and friends will be held at Evangeline Funeral Home in Delcambre on Wednesday, May 11th at 4:00 pm until 8:00 pm. A rosary will be prayed at 7:00 pm and will be led by the friends that she gathered with daily at church to pray the rosary. The funeral home will reopen Wednesday at 8:00 am until 2:45 pm.
A Mass of Christian burial, officiated by Father Buddy Breaux, will occur Thursday, May 12, 2022 at 3:00 pm at Our Lady of the Lake Catholic Church. Lottie’s wish to be cremated after the mass will be honored and she will be placed with her sister, Buddy, and parents in their family tomb at a later date.
