She was preceded in death by her loving husband of 59 years, Dale Boudreaux; and parents, Cleveland Marcel, Sr. and Laura LeCompte Marcel.

Carolyn will forever be remembered as a loving wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, sister, and a dear friend. She had a creative spirit and had this warm energy that would make everyone feel welcomed and loved. Carolyn enjoyed the company of her friends, old and new, and cherished her family. She was a faithful follower of the Catholic church, was a member of St. Francis de Sales Catholic Church of Houma, and will be dearly missed by all who knew and loved her.


The family would like to thank the nurses and staff of Terrebonne General and Dr. Russell Henry for their constant care and compassion.
