U.S. Veteran"I pray that I may live to fish until my dying day and when it comes to be my last cast, I then, most humbly pray, when in the Lord's great landing net and peacefully asleep, that in his mercy I be judged big enough keep."
LF was certainly a keeper. He lived a long and full life. His family will remember him as an avid outdoorsman as he loved hunting and fishing, especially when the speckled trout were biting. He was also a devoted husband for 68 years, always looking for his wife's hand to hold and making sure her glass was full of champagne. LF showcased his love for God's simple beauty of this life in traditions he created. During his last few years, he spent the summers in Grand Isle with his family and was often standing near the window with binoculars waiting for the porpoises to jump. He will be remembered by the traditions he created and the memories that will continue beyond his time with us.
A Mass of Christian Burial will be offered for Lauren Frederick Marchive, Jr. on Friday, December 15, 2017 at 1:00 p.m. at the St. Anthony of Padua Catholic Church with Rev. Stephen Scott Chemino officiating. Burial with Military Honors will follow in the Pythian Cemetery under the direction of Melancon Funeral Home, Bunkie.
