Death Claims a Noble Young Woman. - After an illness of only a few days with 
pneumonia which followed an attack of influenza, Mrs. J. C. Bouchereau, nee Miss 
Laulie Cire, one of the most amiable, noble-hearted and charitable young women 
of this city, passed away at her home at the corner of Claiborne street and 
Railroad avenue, Thursday afternoon at 3:15 o'clock, aged 35 years, 6 months and 
28 days. She was taken ill about a week before, and in spite of every-thing that 
medical science and good and tender nursing could do, she sank steadily until 
she passed away surrounded by those who were nearest and dearest to her in life.

The funeral took place Friday evening at 4 o'clock, with services at the 
Catholic church and interment in the family tomb in the Catholic cemetery. A 
large number of grief stricken relatives and friends attended the last rites and 
followed the remains to their last resting place.

Deceased was one of the most popular of the young women of Donaldsonville. She 
was a splendid type of the model young wife and devoted and affectionate young 
mother. She was endowed with a sweet and charitable disposition and many rare 
traits of character which endeared her to all who knew her. She was a devout 
Catholic and always punctual in the performance of her religious duties and in 
the observance of her religious obligations. Her death occurring as it did after 
such a short illness and almost at the very threshold of a beautiful, peaceful, 
happy and contented life, came as a great shock to her relatives and friends and 
cast a gloom over the entire community.

She was the good wife of J. C. Bouchereau, who is prominent in business and 
fraternal circles in this city. He holds the position of assistant cashier of 
the Bank of Ascension; financial secretary of Ascension Council No. 1087, 
Knights of Columbus, and secretary of the local lodge of Elks and and local camp 
of Woodmen. Besides her grief-stricken husband, she is survived by seven young 
children, the oldest of whom is 13 years, namely: Helen, Clarence, Donald, 
Linden, Lloyd, Laulie and Lucille. She is also survived by two brothers and one 
sister, Elmo Cire of New Orleans, George Cire of Picayune, Miss., and Mrs. 
Archie Cologne of New Orleans. To them The Chief extends sincere sympathy in 
their extraordinary bereavement.
