Carole Anne Delcambre

August 18, 1961 ~ February 12, 2022

ABBEVILLE — A Mass of Christian Burial will be held at 2:00 PM on Friday, February 18, 2022 at St. Mary Magdalen Catholic Church honoring the life of Carole Anne Delcambre, 60, who died Saturday, February 12, 2022 at Eastridge Nursing & Rehabilitation. She will be laid to rest at St. Paul Cemetery with Reverend Louis Richard officiating the services.  
Carole was born in New Orleans, LA. with Cerebral Palsy. Doctors gave her the life expectancy of 12 years, but God had another purpose for keeping her here on earth “to live her Dash” a lot longer. Although she never walked or talked, she always got her point across to those who knew her and always had that beautiful smile and gave the best hugs. She was quite a character. Loved playing bingo. Loved to be pampered. Her favorite color was RED. Always had her nails done and loved dressing for up for special events at Eastridge. Once you got to know Carole, you were her friend forever and she rarely forgot a face. 
She is survived by her brothers, Michael John Delcambre (Christine) of Los Angeles, CA, and David Keith Delcambre (Brenda) of Oceanside, CA; sister-in-law, Dianne Delcambre of Houston, TX; maternal aunts, Virgie Bertrand Barrientes of Lafayette, LA and Cleo Bertrand Smith (John C.) of Abbeville, LA, and Vickie Primeaux Bertrand of Gueydan, LA; paternal uncles and aunts, Jay Delcambre (Inge) of Alexandria, LA, Lynn Delcambre (Theresa) of Loreauville, LA, Gloria Stolz and Connie Bourque of New Iberia, LA, Mary Smith of St. Martinsville, LA, and Lorraine Delcambre of Menifee, CA; three nieces; and three nephews.
Carole was preceded in death by her parents, Carroll and Edna Bertrand Delcambre; brother, Richard Mark Delcambre; maternal grandparents, Walter and Hortense Broussard Bertrand; uncles, Hector Barrientes and Walter Bertrand, Jr.; paternal grandparents, Lenwood Delcambre and Eula Hebert; aunt Glenda Guidry; and uncles, Howard Delcambre and Jules Stolz.
 The family would like to sincerely thank Hospice of Acadiana for their kindness and services, Dr. Ronald LaHasky and the staff of Eastridge Nursing & Rehabilitation for all the loving care they gave Carole in the last 22 years as a resident there.
