After a long battle with cancer, Elaine LeBlanc St. Pierre died peacefully on March 26, 2016 at St. James Parish Hospital at the age of 72 with all her family by her side. She leaves behind her husband of almost 53 years, Aubrey St. Pierre; her daughter Melissa Bourgeois (Russell “Whitey” Bourgeois), sons, Mickey St. Pierre (Missy), Marc St. Pierre (fiance’ Torrie), and daughter Marcy St. Pierre. She will be sorely missed by the loves of her life, her grandchildren: Kyle and Kerry Bourgeois (wife Candace), (Melissa & Whitey), Courtney, Benjamin, Amanda, Ashlyn and Bryn St. Pierre (Mickey and Missy), Collin, Logan, and Kylie St. Pierre (Marc). Elaine is survived by her husband, children, and grandchildren, as well as her sisters, Theresa Roussel (Richard) and Linda Poche; and her brothers, Dudley Jr. (Ronnie), Jimmy (Liz), Jessie (Robbin), and Terry (Gretchen); and numerous nieces and nephews. She is preceded in death by her parents, Dudley LeBlanc and Theresa Laiche LeBlanc as well as her two young babies whom she’ll be reunited with. Elaine was born on September 21, 1943. She grew up on a farm in a large, loving, family. She graduated from Lutcher High School in 1961 and married classmate and the love of her life, Aubrey, on June 22, 1963. Elaine enjoyed the outdoors and athletics. She loved her flower gardens and could name almost every type of flower and knew the care to give them. She loved attending and watching sporting events and all school activities her grandchildren were involved in. She attended Lutcher sporting events since the 1970’s and was a huge football fan. Even with her illness in the late stages, she attended the 2015 Lutcher State Championship football game to help cheer on her grandson and the Bulldogs to victory. She also loved her swamp-pop music and was an avid dancer prior to her diagnosis in August 2014. Elaine was a very faithful woman always helping where she could and loved cleaning the church with her lady friends. Her and Aubrey also loved spending time at their camp down Blind River and enjoyed all the people that would stop over to see them.
