Mary Ann was born in Crowley on Nov. 12, 1945. She was called to her Heavenly Father on Jan. 13, 2022. Mary Ann was a lifelong resident of Mermentau Cove and a lifelong faithful parishioner of St. John the Evangelist Catholic Church where she married her late husband, Oscar “Bobby” Marceaux on Oct. 17, 1964.

She sold Avon for 50 years and loved visiting with people. She also worked for numerous years as a caregiver to many people. In her spare time, she loved to color and watch her favorite movies. Her greatest joy came from spending time with family and friends. Mary Ann was a kind and loving person she will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved her.

Mary Ann is survived by her son, Michael Marceaux of Mire; her daughter, Joanna Marceaux Borde (Kyle) of Mermentau Cove; her three grandchildren, Amber Marceaux Richard (Jared), Kyle Blaine Borde, Jr. (Beth) and Trace Aaron Borde; and her four great-granddaughters, Emme, Mallorie, Riley and Kara.

Mary Ann was preceded in death by her husband, Oscar “Bobby” Marceaux.; her parents, John W. Breaux and Edith Verret Breaux; and her infant brother, David Michael Breaux.

Mary Ann’s family would like to extend a very special thanks to her caregivers, Marie Migues and Carolyn Hanks, as well as Dr. Aekther and the staff at Acadia General.
