Mary Joyce was full of life. Her passion was spending time with her family. In 
her early years, she worked for the St. Mary Bank and Trust Co. In 1986 she 
left the bank and went to work for the St. Mary Parish School Board as a bus 
driver, where she remained for 20 years, until retiring in 2006.

Survivors include her husband, Joseph DeMahy of Baldwin; one daughter, 
Priscilla Granger Fontenot and her husband Chuck of Fort Worth, TX; one son, 
Scott Granger and his wife Angie of Youngsville; four grandchildren, Mallory 
Fontenot of Sioux Falls, SD, Chas Fontenot of Fort Worth, TX, and Brandon and 
Coby Granger of Youngsville; two brothers, James Hebert of Biloxi, MS and 
Herman Hebert of Franklin; three step-children; and six step-grandchildren.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Emmet Joseph Hebert, Sr. and Reba 
Chauvin Hebert; and three siblings, Emmet Joseph Hebert, Jr., Priscilla Hebert, 
and Harvey Hebert.

A gathering of family and friends will be held Friday at Sacred Heart of Jesus 
Catholic Church from 9:00 AM until time of Mass at 11:00 AM, with the rosary 
being prayed at 10:30 AM.

Serving as pallbearers will be Brandon Granger, Tommy Hebert, Beau Hebert, 
River Hebert, Austin Hebert, and Joshua Trimm. Honorary pallbearers will be

The family suggests that memorial contributions be made in honor of Mary 
Joyce's grandson, Chas Fontenot, to Defeat Autism Now, at American Autism 
Association, 192 Lexington Avenue, Suite 245, New York, NY 10016.
