Janet,
I was so sorry to hear about your mom and truly sorry that I wasn't able to attend the services. I have many fond memories of our summers when we worked with your mom and Lindel at City Hall. I will never forget their famous saying "What ya know?" Take care and my thoughts and prayers are with you during this time!

Biddie was such a wonderful person. She lit up a room with her smile and her laughter no matter where she was. She loved ALL the kids, young and old and was never shy about telling them. One of "The Sisters" is gone, but we will never forget her.

Cathy, Pattie and Janet -- I'm sorry that I am unable to be there today for you, but I have a doctor's appointment that could not be changed. I will be praying for you and Lindell as I know that you will all miss Biddie terribly, as will all of us who remember her so well. She was always smiling and happy even if the last few years when her health was not the best.

I love you, and hope to see you soon.

The world will not be the same without Biddie. I am so very sorry, Lyndal. Fully intended to get by to see you two last week because of your injury and now I've missed Biddie. Shows we all need to slow down and enjoy each other while we're here. Love both of you and will have you in my thoughts and prayers.

Dear Pattie and family,
How sad I was to open the paper and see that your Mom had passed away. It has been over 40 years since I have seen you and the Arceneaux family but I so remember your Mom and Dad and all the time they devoted to Holy Rosary and all the kids! They truly were part of a group that showed me the importance & FUN of SERVICE....of volunteering and being involved and I carry that with me still today. I am certain they both now know the example they set and the lives they touched by this. Having lost my Mom 2 yrs ago I can truly say it is a loss like no other….but I believe they are with us in ways they could never be before. Your Mom's smile is legendary and I am sure you girls carry that in your hearts and on your face each day. Thanks be to God for the loving life of this precious lady. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

What a sweetheart of a person. I remember Mrs. Arceneaux from Holy Rosary. Her daughter Cathy & I were in the same class. What a funloving person she was. She always made us laugh.

Cathey, Pattie, and Janet, My love to each of you with such fond memories of your mom and dad. Biddie was a wonderful lady. How lucky were we to grow up on houseboats on Caddo Lake! We had so much fun. I loved your mom and I'm so thankful for knowing her and you three. God bless and keep. Love, Ginger James

I remember how much fun my family had back over fifty years ago with Biddie and her family. We had a houseboat on Caddo Lake next to her boat. "She was a joy and fun for everyone. She would not want anyone being sad about this time, so remember the "good times" with her and you will see her again! James O. Pigue' Shreveport, La.

Biddie was such a kind and sweet loving person to be around. She will be greatly missed, because i will always see them both together, no matter what (Biddie and Lindal). Our prayers are with the family at this time of sorrow. We worked together at the State Fair. Gone but not forgotten!
