St. Landry Clarion (Opelousas, La.) 1890-1921, February 27, 1915, Image 1

Former Opelousas Lady Dies in New Orleans.

On Friday night of last week Miss Felicie E. Prevost, beloved aunt of John 
Desmarais, of Houston, O. C. Bodemuller, Misses Althee and Rita Desmarais, 
and sister of Mrs. R. E. Bodemuller, all former residents of this city, died 
at the family residence in New Orleans, at the age of sixty-six years.

Miss Prevost will long be remembered as one of Opelousas' noblest women, one 
always ready to lend a helping hand to the poor and never too tired to do a 
little charitable work. No one ever went to Miss Prevost for alms and was 
turned away. For many years the deceased lived in this city and during her 
stay here she was beloved and respected by all with whom she came in 
contact.

The surviving relatives of the deceased are well known here. Miss Althee 
Desmarais was for several years one of the most trusted and valuable 
employees of the Clarion, while Miss Rita Desmasais was for several months a 
popular employee of the Jacobs News depot Co. The many friends here of the 
bereaved family deeply sympathize with them in their loss.

The funeral ceremonies took place at the St. Stephen's Church, New Orleans, 
on last Saturday evening at 4:30 o'clock, and interment was private. The 
remains of the deceased were however, later brought to this city for re-
interment. The body arrived on the Frisco Thursday evening, and a large 
number of friends and relatives followed it to its last resting place in the 
Catholic cemetery in this city.

Additional Comments:
NOTE: Felicie E. Prevot was the daughter of Jean Prevot and Victorine Tessa 
and is buried in the Saint Landry Catholic Church cemetery located in 
Opelousas, St. Landry Parish, Louisiana.
