life's heartaches and trials. They spent the last 23 years caring for their 
invalid son, Chad. Bill was an instrumental guiding light for his children, 
grandchildren and friends. They could always go to him for advice and a cheerful 
word. He helped many of his friends in time of need and never asked any in 
return. Bill had many pets and especially loved his chocolate lab "Brandy". His 
joys were hunting, spending time on his property and most of all, his family. 
Bill's sudden passing has affected many lives and he will be missed 
tremendously. "May the Lord Bless and keep Bill forever"

Marjorie Sinclair, beloved wife, mother, grandmother, and educator, died Monday, 
Feb. 7, 2011 at Forrest General Hospital in Hattiesburg, Miss.

Visitation will be at 12:30 p.m. Friday at St. Thomas Catholic Church in 
Hattiesburg, Miss., followed by a Mass at 1:30 pm. Interment will take place at 
a later date at St. Francis de Sales Cemetery in Houma.

She is survived by her son, C. Richard Sinclair and wife, Marlyn of Miramar 
Beach, Fla.; and her daughter, Dr. Barbara Ellender and husband, Dr. R. D. 
Ellender of Hattiesburg, Miss. Also left to cherish the memory of their "Mimi" 
are six grandchildren, Robert and David Sinclair, Jennifer Sinclair Lauderdale, 
Hollyn Ellender Christensen, Erin Ellender Chandler, and Caroline Ellender 
Compretta; and 13 great-grandchildren, Annika Sinclair, Charles Sinclair, 
Nicholas, Jacob, Zachary and Matthew Lauderdale, Connor, William and Annabeth 
Christensen, Jackson and Olivia Chandler, and Trey and Benjamin Compretta. Mrs. 
Sinclair and her family considered her loyal and compassionate caregiver, 
Barbara Floyd, a dear friend.

She was preceded in death by her parents; five brothers; Henry, Jacques, 
Archibald, Laurence, and Ernest de la Bretonne; four sisters, Florence and 
Dorothy de la Bretonne, Elizabeth Payne, and Gladys Carroll; and a grandson, 
Charles Randolph Sinclair.

Born Marjorie Louise de la Bretonne on Oct. 28, 1916, in Bogalusa, she moved at 
an early age to Houma with her parents, Henry Victor and Elizabeth Ernest de la 
Bretonne. She graduated from high school at age 15 and entered Louisiana Normal 
College to pursue a degree in mathematics education. Upon graduation, she 
enrolled at LSU where she earned a master's degree in mathematics at age 19. She 
subsequently obtained the specialist certification and taught in the Terrebonne 
Parish School System for 25 years. Among her most satisfying achievements were 
preparing students for regional and state mathematics competitions and 
encouraging students to academic excellence. Her efforts were honored when the 
Marjorie Sinclair Chapter of the National Honor Society was established at Houma 
Jr. High School.

She was a dedicated Catholic and attended St. Francis de Sales Cathedral in 
Houma and St. Thomas Aquinas Church in Hattiesburg. She was a life member of 
Delta Kappa Gamma. She challenged herself intellectually throughout her 
lifetime, and well into her nineties, was an avid reader, sports fan, follower 
of current events and enjoyed working New York Times crossword puzzles.

She met her beloved husband of 67 years, Charles Ralph Sinclair, when the couple 
played opposite one another in the lead roles in the 1938 Terrebonne Little 
Theater production, The Night of Jan. 16th. Their on-stage romance developed 
into an enduring marriage marked by unfailing love and devotion. They were 
separated by his death in 2006.

It was Mrs. Sinclair's wish that any expressions of condolence be made in the 
form of charitable contributions to the St. Vincent de Paul Society, c/o St. 
Thomas Catholic Church, 3117 W. Fourth St., Hattiesburg, MS 39401.

Walter T. Daigle, 89, a native of Napoleonville and a resident of Labadieville, 
passed away at his home on Thursday, Feb. 10, 2011, after a long and courageous 
battle with prostate cancer.

Visitation will be from 8:30 a.m. to funeral time Tuesday at St. Philomena 
Catholic Church in Labadieville. Funeral services will be held at 11 a.m. 
Tuesday preceded by a "Memorial" by Labadieville Knights of Columbus Council 
11061, "A Comrade's Farewell" by American Legion Post 284, and a "Military 
Tribute" by the United Veterans League. Final viewing will precede the rite of 
christian burial which will be at 11 a.m. Tuesday, with interment in the church 
mausoleum.

He is survived by his wife, Ethel "Toonie" Daigle; two daughters, Patricia 
Lively and husband, Selser, of Baton Rouge and Rita Murphy and husband, Kenneth, 
of Brandon, Miss.; two stepdaughters, Patricia Bender and husband, Tom, of 
Tyler, Texas, and Mary Susan Farrar and husband, Dr. Scott Farrar of Fort Worth, 
Texas; two stepsons, Ricky Lecompte and wife, Shirley, and Michael Lecompte and 
wife, Leslie, both of Houma; five grandchildren, Christine Labban of Houston, 
Scott Lively of Baton Rouge, and Ryan, Stephen, and John Murphy of Brandon, 
Miss.; two great-grandchildren, Alden Grace Labban of Houston, and Seth Murphy 
of Brandon, Miss.; 10 step-grandchildren; 13 step-great-grandchildren; one 
sister, Lucy Cancienne of Labadieville; and one brother, Harry Daigle and wife, 
Grace of Luling.

He was preceded in death by his first wife, Oneita Harrison Daigle; three 
brothers, Everett, Felix, and Earl Daigle; two sisters, Velda Daigle Boudreaux 
Talbot, and Ann Frances "Princess" Borne; and his parents, Walter and Cecile 
Hebert Daigle.

A native of Napoleonic, he moved to Valence Plantation in Labadieville 80 years 
when his father was hired as an overseer by E.G. Robichaux, Inc. He was a member 
of St. Philomena Catholic Church, Labadieville Knights of Columbus Council 
11061, American Legion Post 284, and Assumption Parish Farm Bureau. He served as 
a past member of the ASCS County Committee. He served in the U.S. Army Air Corp 
from Aug. 12, 1942 to Feb. 4, 1946. He then served in the Reserves from Feb. 5, 
1946 to Feb. 6, 1949.

Walter was a retired sugarcane farmer, but gardening was his pleasure. He 
enjoyed every part of the gardening process, but most of all, he loved sharing 
his fruit and vegetables with others. As a Farm Bureau insurance agent, his main 
goal was service to his clients. Over the last 20 years, he received great 
pleasure and satisfaction from helping his wife with church and community 
activities. Among family and friends, he was often the one who was called upon 
to help in times of trouble or illness. Even during his own health struggles, he 
continued to worry more about others than himself. His family will always 
remember Walter as a kind and compassionate man with a gentle spirit. He was 
truly a "southern gentleman."

The family wishes to express their appreciation to the staff of St. Joseph 
Hospice and care givers, Barbara Taylor and Jane Wendt, for their compassionate 
care.

In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to the St. Philomena 
Restoration Fund, P.O. Box 99, Labadieville, LA 70372.
