Sylvia Rose Landry Creel went to her heavenly home on Friday, November 21, 2014, peacefully at home with her husband and children close by her side.
Sylvia was born on September 3, 1937. She was a beautiful, wise, strong, and courageous woman who always had a smile, even in the hardest of times. She was full of life and love for her family and her God. She was happiest when her family of thirty plus was gathered at her home celebrating the holidays, birthdays and many other special events. Sylvia was a devoted homemaker, taking great pride in her family and her home. She had a passion for planting flowers and loved having a beautiful yard. But, most importantly, she was a loving, devoted and caring wife, mother and grandmother.
Sylvia was a live long resident of the St. Martin area and a member of Sacred Heart Catholic Church in D’Iberville until her illness.
Sylvia is preceded in death by her parents, Emmett J. Landry and Jeanette Lepoma Landry.
Left cherishing her memories are her husband of 58 years, Junius R. Creel; her children, Vicky Quave (Rocky), Theresa Fetters (Roger), Patricia Aucoin (Noel), Helen Buchanan (Greg), and Junius “Junie” Creel, Jr. (Ramona); her twelve grandchildren, Christopher Fetters (Lacy), Jarrod Fetters (Samantha), Jessica Satchfield (Kurt), Drew Aucoin, Andrea Fetters, Mitchell Buchanan, Lauren Quave, Erica Creel, Blake Buchanan, Laz Quave, Allie Creel and Isabelle Creel; her three great-grandchildren, Carolyne Fetters, Elly Fetters, and Gunner Satchfield; and her siblings, Janis Fountain (Gerald), Lee Landry (Jackie) and Susan Goff (Tommy).
