Dolores was a member of the Lay Carmelites, Ladies Altar Society, Come Lord Jesus, and her weekly rosary group. She was a faithful member of St. Mary Magdalen Catholic Church, where she taught catechism, served as Eucharist Minister and would bring communion to fellow parishioners who were sick and homebound .

Dolores kept God at the very center of her life, her heart, and her family. She was affectionately known by her family as “Monee” and her love for each of them was fierce and never-ending. Her faith-filled home and goodness, shown by her constant smile, reflected the unending love that she and her husband, Jeffery had for God and family. She was a woman of great joy, great laughs, and a heart filled with the Lord. She always was and will always be a blessing to anyone who knew her and her love will be with us “now and forever.”

She is survived by her five children, Benjie Meaux and his wife, Debra, Jodie Sellers and her husband, Patrick, Annette Duhon and her husband, Darren, Donna Noel and her husband, James, and Nancy Meaux and her husband, Michael; 12 grandchildren; 13 great grandchildren; and numerous nieces and nephews.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Jeffery J. Meaux; grandson, Brock Huval; parents, Eugene and Anny Ledet; son in law, Kevin W. Lemaire; and eight siblings.

The family requests that visiting hours be observed at Vincent Funeral Home - Abbeville, 209 S. St. Charles St., on Friday, June  3, 2022 from 9:30 AM until 12:45 PM when the procession will depart for the church. A rosary is being prayed at 11:00 AM.
