We are saddened to announce the passing of Stella V. Robicheaux of Stephensville, La. She passed away peacefully at home in her sleep with loved ones near.
Stella enjoyed life to her fullest. She would never pass up a chance to go hunting, competing for the big one against her father and brother. She could tear up a dance floor and had many admirers when she was moving. She was a talented artist and avid gardener. She loved attending and reading passages in church and her favorite thing to do was cooking for her large family gatherings. She bled red like the rest of us, but she bled blue and white as well for the Dallas Cowboys and New York Yankees. Stella never met a stranger and everyone took time to get to know her. Stella would often boasts about her grandchildren and their accomplishments, as they were her proudest accomplishments. Her life will be continued to be celebrated by the ones nearest to her.
