      Member of Early Rayne Family Is Claimed By Death

      Funeral services were held Monday at 10 a.m. in St. John's Cathedral in Lafayette for Mrs. J. Frank Jeanmard, the former Lucille Perres, 81, who died at Lafayette General Hospital at 11 a.m. Saturday.

      Her son, Rt. Rev. Msgr. Jules Jeanmard of Eunice, was celebrant of the beautiful Mass, with His Excellency, the Most Rev. Maurice Schexnayder, D.D., Bishop of Lafayette, giving the Absolution, and Rt. Rev. Msgr. George A. Bodin, V.F., pastor of St. John Cathedral, officiating at the graveside ceremonies. Deacon for the Mass was Very Rev. Edward Boudreaux, while the Sub Deacon was Rev. Marcel Fourcade.

      Interment was in the St. John Cemetery, with hosts of relatives and friends from this entire area in attendance.

      Pallbearers included her grandsons and grandnephews, Frank Traub and Buddy Bettis, grandsons, and George Jeanmard, Cyrus Guidry, Michael and Michell Barras, great nephews.

      Honorary pallbearers included Bennett Voorhies, Sr., J. Alfred Mouton, Sr., William Mouton, Dr. Eerleen Bienvenu, Jerome Thibeaux and Jules Krauss of Lafayette, J.C. Keller, Jr., of Eunice, and John Fangue and Sidney Toups of Berwick.

      Mrs. Jeanmard will be remembered by many in this community as the daughter of the late August Perres and Dolores Arenas Perres, pioneer settlers of the Rayne area.

      She was a sister of the late Felix Perres, charter member and first Fire Chief of the Rayne Volunteer Fire Association, and long prominent in the business and civic life of this community. Her girlhood was spent here, and her happiest memories were of her early life in Rayne, and the many wonderful friends here whom she cherished throughout the years she lived in Lafayette.

      Mrs. Jeanmard often said: "Lafayette is where I live, but Rayne will always be my home". She frequently visited here during the time Mr. and Mrs. Perres were living, and had many relatives and friends in Rayne who dearly loved this sweet Christian woman. Her family was her greatest joy, and she was a devoted wife and mother. Her husband, the late J. Frank Jeanmard, was a brother to His Excellency, the most Rev. Jules B. Jeanmard, D.D., loved Bishop of the Lafayette Diocese until his death several years ago.

      Following her death, the family requested that remembrances be made to St. Mary's Home or Immaculate Seminary, since she had always had a great interest in these two institutions.

      Survivors include four daughters, Mrs. Jerome Thibeaux and Miss Marie Louise Jeanmard, both of Lafayette, Mrs. George Traub of New Orleans and Mrs. Nathan Bettis of Houston, Texas, one son, Rt. Rev. Msgr. Jules Jeanmard, pastor of St. Anthony Catholic Church in Eunice; and nine grandchildren.
