Rose Mary Lanclos Thibodeaux, a cherished matriarch to her family and a beloved friend to many, was born on July 3, 1938, in Leonville, Louisiana. Rose lived a life filled with love, laughter, and unyielding devotion to her family. In addition to her outstanding role as a homemaker, Rose was a dedicated caregiver for many years, providing compassionate care to both the sick and elderly in her community. Over the years, she had various part-time jobs, including at Bills Dollar, Fontenot and Guidry, and Hebert’s Supermarket, all while raising her family with love and care.

Known affectionately as “Mom Rose,” she was the heart and soul of family gatherings, where she brought people together with her infectious

spirit and also her excellent cooking. Her famous shrimp spaghetti recipe was a cherished family treasure - a dish that to this day, no one has been able to duplicate. Rose also loved to dance, whether she was gliding across the floor with her beloved Paw Paw or line dancing. She cherished every moment spent with her loved ones and found joy in the simple pleasures of life, reminding us all of the importance of family and friendship. She will be deeply missed.

She is survived by her husband of 66 years, Patrick L. Thibodeaux, Sr.; her five sons, Bobby Lanclos (Jo Ann), Perry Thibodeaux (Paula), Terry Thibodeaux, Patrick Thibodeaux, Jr. (Connie) and, Jody Thibodeaux (Lisa); grandchildren, Sheila Wart elle (Jeff), Amanda Peck (Shaun), Blake Thibodeaux (Megan), Kate Bradford (Aaron), Alexis T. Montgomery (Thad), Amber T. Poche (Johnathan), Ryan Thibodeaux, Jade Feucht (Jeramy), Misti Bernard (Jaron), Drew Thibodeaux (Taylor) and Drake Thibodeaux; great grandchildren, Graham, Alexis (Logan), Maci, Mallory, Elliana Rose, Charlie “CiCi”, Mia, Brooklyn, Maverick, Vaida, Carter, Lane, Marley, Rowen, Luke, Landon, Sage, Silas, and Sanders; greatgreat grandchild, Evelyn; sisters, Ezola Delhomme and Lela Tressner; and a host of nieces, nephews, cousins and dear friends of the family.

She is preceded in death by her parents, Maurice and Lenora “Josephine” Stelly Lanclos; siblings, Albert “Nue” Lanclos, Telismar Lanclos, Numa Lanclos and, Lelia Bourque; and one great-great grandchild, Ivy Renee.
