Rhea worked for Hi-Seas of Dulac for almost 23 years where she became the ladies’ supervisor. She was loved by all that knew her and will be missed more than words can express. A gentler, kinder, more compassionate and loving person is hard to find. Her faith carried her through as she carried her cross. May she sing with the nine choirs of angels and rest in peace in the loving arms of our Father in Heaven. She was a parishioner of Holy Family Catholic Church.
Visitation will be 8:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. Monday, January 28, 2008 at Holy Family Catholic Church with mass to follow. She will be buried in the church cemetery.
Chauvin Funeral Home is in charge of the arrangements.
