It is with the heaviest of hearts that the family of Margaret Anthony LeDoux, age 69, announces her passing on

many lives of patients and families. In 1994, she married Terry LeDoux of Dry Creek, Louisiana, becoming a
loving, devoted, and amazing mother to Violet, Chris, and Amber. Margaret never forgot a birthday,
anniversary, or holiday by sharing her generous spirit with those she loved. Of her many hobbies, taking care of
her family and friends and spoiling her dogs were the ones she most treasured. Margaret also loved flowers and
taking care of her yard, and could name every plant and flower she had.

of Pineville, and Amber Foraker & Jonathan of DeRidder; nine grandchildren, Katie Hebert, Kaleb Atkinson,

friends.
She is preceded in death by her parents, Orville & Helen Anthony; husband Terry LeDoux; and granddaughter
Lasyn Hebert.
Margaret had the most generous spirit, giving annually to many local charities that she knew would help
others. In lieu of flowers, please consider giving to these charities that she knew helped others: St. Jude's
Children's Hospital, Project Joy and Hope of Pasadena, Texas, Dry Creek Baptist Camp, and the Lake Charles
Pit Bull Rescue.
