Carla leaves behind a legacy of love, strength, and unwavering devotion that will continue to inspire generations to come. As a grandmother, Carla was nothing short of extraordinary. Her grandchildren were the light of her life, and she cherished every moment spent with them, whether reading stories, engaging in crafts, or playing with Play-Doh. Her home was always open, filled with warmth, joy, and the delightful sounds of children at play.

Carla's selfless spirit extended beyond her family. As a devout Catholic, she was always active in her church parish of St. Bernard Catholic Church. A true believer in prayer, she would spend hours of her day praying for others. She served the homebound by visiting them and bringing Communion weekly. She was a servant to the Lord who touched the lives of many, leaving a lasting impact on those who had the privilege of knowing her.

Carla is survived by her loving husband Herbert "Herbie" Boudreaux to whom she was married to for almost 42 years.
