She was born December 4, 1931 to Paul and Effie McKenzie, near Abbeville, LA,

in 1954. Carla was married to Louis R. Soulier from 1951 through 1975. Carla and

Carla was employed as a film/media librarian at ULM from 1954-1978; and then as

worked as office manager for Dr. Warren J. Stassi of Monroe from 1980-1983. Her 
last employment was with the Orthopaedic Clinic of Monroe from 1984-1993.
