She was preceded in death by the love of her life and husband of 64 years, Willis “Hale” Rochel; her parents, Paul Naquin Sr. and Edmonia Guillot Naquin; two brothers, Ernest Naquin and Harold Naquin; and two sisters, Vivian “V” Waldon and Goldie Thibodeaux.

Pallbearers selected will be her four sons, Greg Rochel, Tim Rochel Sr., Mark Rochel, and Glenn Rochel Sr., and Paul Naquin Jr., and Robbie Grow. Honorary pallbearers will be her grandsons, known as Emma’s crew.

Arrangements have been entrusted to Ibert’s Mortuary, Inc., 1111 Lia Street, Patterson, LA 70392, (985) 395-7873.
