Lana LeBlanc Touchet was born on September 6, 1950, in Abbeville and she was a lifelong resident of Vermilion Parish. She was known as “MeMe” to her family and friends.
Lana was a very selfless person; always trying to help others as well as giving to charities.
She loved God above all else, enjoyed going to mass, and regularly prayed the rosary asking for divine intervention on others’ behalf. Lana was the owner and operator of Le Bon Manger in Abbeville for 18 years where she was proud to help several of her employees attend college. She spent her retirement sewing handmade dresses and christening gowns for Lilian of New Orleans for 22 years; this was one of her passions.
Lana also volunteered her skills at sewing with Steps To Heaven in Abbeville. She enjoyed getting together with her classmates and traveling the world; going on 38 cruises during her lifetime, but her schedule always included Sunday dinner with her children. Lana will be missed by many and was loved by all.
Lana is survived by her loving husband of 56 years, Terry Touchet; her two children, Kim Touchet Lasalle (Kevin) and Chance Touchet (Jamie Ballard Toney); her two grandchildren, Bailey and Kade Lasalle; her mother-in-law, Lona B. Touchet; along with a host of dear friends.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Acey J. and Rose Harrington LeBlanc; her father-in-law, Evest Touchet; as well as her nephew, Jamie Primeaux.
The family wishes to offer a heartfelt thank you to Father Louis Richard as well as the nurses, doctors, and staff at the Heart Hospital of Lafayette, Our Lady of Lourdes Regional Medical Center, AMG Specialty Hospital, and Traditions Health Hospice for the care and compassion they offered Lana and her family during her time of need.
