Barbara Elizabeth Gross Sauce, a lifelong resident of Morgan City passed away 
on Wednesday, June 1, 2016 at the age of 56.

A painter, Babbie was artistic and created many beautiful works of art which 
decorated her home. She held many enjoyments in life, like her love of growing 
new things in her yard. While she loved flowers of all kinds, her favorites 
were magnolias, sunflowers and daisies. She also enjoyed swimming which she 
used to teach to children. When she was in College she raced competitively with 
the LSU Swim Team. 

Up until this past year, she was often found at the swimming pool doing laps in 
the summer time. Babbie was known for her cheesecake but most importantly she 
was known for being friendly, never meeting a stranger, and always giving a 
compliment. Babbie will be missed but forever remembered by those blessed to 
have had her presence in their lives.

Babbie leaves to cherish her memory her friend & former husband, Jed Sauce; 
their three daughters, Amber Pierce and her husband, Daniel, Fallon Jones and 
her husband, Brandon, and Karli Sauce; her son, Richard "Boozie" Prosperie; her 
father, Ray Gross; her mother, Barbara Gross; six grandchildren, Lily and 
Elijah Pierce, Violet Jones, Shay, Zack, and Alexis Prosperie; three sisters, 
Ellen Hetherington, Susan Boutte, Mary Cherry; two brothers, Ray "Danny" Gross 
and John Gross; and numerous nieces and nephews.

Memorial Visitation for Babbie will be held on Saturday, June 11th at 10am with 
a Memorial Mass of Christian Burial taking place at 11am all at Sacred Heart 
Catholic Church in Morgan City.

The family would like to express their appreciation and gratitude to Maison 
Jardin and their staff for all of their assistance and care of Babbie during 
her residency there.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in Babbie's memory to organizations 
that assist in Multiple Sclerosis.

Arrangements under the direction of Hargrave Funeral Home, Morgan City, LA.
