water patrol, all the while working as a commercial fisherman and shrimper. He 
will be fondly remembered and deeply missed by all who knew and loved him.

wife Kellye, Robert Robicheaux Jr. and his companion Angie LeBlanc, Tonia R. 
LaJaunie, Jacob Thibodaux, Joseph Thibodaux, and Melissa Millet; 19 great 
grandchildren; and four great great grandchildren.

He was preceded in death by his father, Joseph Millet; his mother and step-
father, Edna Ayo Millet Stevens and Adler Stevens; and three brothers, Frank, 
Warren "Bozo", and Harold Millet.
