Jeanette Ann Cornor was born on August 23, 1945 in Abbeville, Louisiana and she was a life long resident of Vermilion Parish. Jeanette will be remembered as a strong, proud, feisty woman who liked being right. She loved going to the beach and even if she didn’t always swim she loved sitting and watching the waves , enjoying the wind. She was the owner of a successful restaurant in Erath called Mickeys in the late 70s. She worked offshore as a roustabout for Texaco. She also was a caregiver later in life. Before she moved in with her daughters she owned her own home which she was very proud of. She was living with her daughters for the last three and a half years of her life. She loved French music and going out dancing on the weekends. She loved QVC and purchased many cool things that we all benefited from ,especially the jewelry. Y’all morganite is a thing. We posted many Jeanette isms (sayings) she thought she had "alabastus", which took us some time to figure out that she meant asbestosis. She had us laughing so much sometimes. When we were growing up we could not have pets because she didn’t like animals in the house. As she aged she changed her mind, she had a hairless cat named Molly, she loved Molly more than she loved us, often calling her our sister. Our dogs loved our mother and would often be sitting on her lap along side Molly every day. She will be greatly missed. Our homes feel empty already.
Jeanette is survived by her children, Monica Hebert and her husband Chris, Karl Bodin and his wife Nancy, Timothy Bodin and his wife, Tonya; Amy White and her husband Randal; her grandchildren, Ethan , Gavin ,Sammy , Aaron, Destry, Tristen, Kodi, Patrick, and Eiko; her great grandchildren, Oliver, Emma, Luke, Odin, Rocket, Andes, Penelope, and Matilda; her siblings, Roger Cornor, Collins Cornor, Rena Hebert, Glenda Boudreaux, Kim White, and Dorothy Corner; as well as her special friend, Enson Saltzman.
She was preceded in death by her parents Joseph "CB" Cornor and Agnes Turner; her brothers, Percy, Bradley, Warren, and Butch; as well as her sister, Beverly Cornor.
The family wishes to extend a special thank you to the Nurses, Doctors and Staff of "Our Lady of Lourdes Heart Hospital" for the special care and compassion they provided Jeanette during her time of need.
