Irene Templet Fromenthal, born October 20, 1923, a native of Morgan City, 
passed away peacefully in Lafayette on Saturday, June 20, 2015, at the age of 
91.

Irene was foremost a homemaker who selflessly served her family with love 
throughout her life. She humbly practiced her faith through the church by 
belonging to the Ladies Altar Society and the Holy Cross Bereavement Committee. 
Irene volunteered at the convent when the Marianite sisters were active in 
Morgan City by shopping, cleaning, cooking special dishes, and starching and 
ironing for them. When asked why she did it, she responded simply that they 
prayed with her.

Irene was a loving wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother. She 
enjoyed gardening, cooking for her family, and participating in the activities 
of her grandchildren. She tirelessly took care of her special daughter, Gwen, 
until her death last year. Where Irene went, so did Gwen.

Irene is survived by her daughter, Sandra Cox, of Lafayette; three sons, Logan 
Fromenthal and his wife , Susan; Rodney Fromenthal and his wife Marie; and Dale 
Fromenthal; 12 grandchildren, Annette Girard, Susan Mahfouz, Bonnie Guarisco, 
Lauren Fanelli, Erin Shipe, Rodney Fromenthal, Jr., Kellie Burnett, Kim 
Tompkins, Amy Vernon, Catherine Tompkins, Nikki Fromenthal and John Touchet. 
She is also survived by 20 great-grandchildren.

Irene was preceded in death by her parents, Norbert Templet and Elise Duval 
Templet, her husband, Logan Fromenthal, Sr.; her daughter, Gwen Fromenthal; her 
brother, Gene Templet; and two sisters, Irma Guidry and Doris Gobert.

Visitation will be held Wednesday June 24, 2015 at Holy Cross Catholic Church 
beginning at 9:00 a.m.to 11:00 a.m. with A Mass of Christian Burial beginning 
at 11:00 a.m.
