Lafayette - Laura Mae Comeaux, age 85, passed away peacefully at her home on August 28, 2025 in Lafayette, Louisiana, surrounded by family. Laura was a lifelong member of St. Leo the Great Catholic Church in Lafayette, Louisiana. She was a loving and caring mother and friend to all who knew her. She worked for A&P, Small World Day Care as an assistant for 5 years, and was a bartender for numerous bars in Lafayette. She was an avid reader, loved crawfish boils and bar-b-que gatherings. But mostly, Laura was the happiest when she was with her children and grandchildren. She never drove, drank or smoked, but never missed a thing. She always made sure you knew you were loved. She will be deeply missed by all. Laura is survived by her son, Lovelace Louis Comeaux, II of Lafayette, Louisiana; two daughters: Lynn Richard of Lafayette, Louisiana and Samantha (Todd) LeBlanc Brasseaux of Washington, Louisiana; two sisters: Jane LeBlanc (Howard, deceased) of Texas and Anna Rose (Shelton, deceased) Suire of Abbeville, Louisiana; two brothers: Allen (Delores, deceased) LeBlanc of Lafayette, Louisiana and Russell (Yvette) LeBlanc of Erath, Louisiana; son-in-law Gregory “Hippy” (Karen) Bourque of Breaux Bridge, Louisiana; two godchildren: Anna Rose Suire of Abbeville, Louisiana and Terry (Sharon) LeBlanc of Texas; ten grandchildren: Jeremy Comeaux, Billie Dawn Lyons, Kelsey Comeaux, Shannon Bourque, Kimberly Bourque, Brandi Bourque, Ronnie Touchet, Michael Touchet, Timothy Brasseaux and Danika Brasseaux; four step-grandchildren: Steven Richard, Joshua Richard, Jarrod Landry, Brandi Guidry, Tiffany Landry, and Joshua Pothier; twenty great-grandchildren, and a host of nieces, nephews, relatives and friends.
