Those left behind to cherish her memory include her daughter, Sonia Normand (James) White of Jena; one son, Robert Fabien Normand of Baker; youngest daughter, Lola A Normand of Central; grandchild, Rachel Leanne White of Jena; three brothers, Robert LaBorde of Mansura, E.L. LaBorde of Hessmer and Kermit LaBorde of Hessmer; her sister, Alice Bordelon of Hessmer; and many nieces and nephews.  
  Even though our hearts ache for just one more hug, one more story, and one more “I love you”, we know our beloved mother is looking upon us - for she is better off than any of us.
