Audrey will be missed by all who knew and loved her. She will be remembered for her great sense of humor and quick wit. She found joy in making people laugh. "Momma Audrey" or "Maw Maw" was a nurturer who enjoyed cooking and feeding anyone who would drop by. Every visitor left her home with a gift of fresh fruit or homemade preserves. Audrey was a diligent neighborhood watch devotee as she walked her beloved dogs. Her smile and contagious laughter will live on forever in the memories of those who knew her.

Survivors include her two children, LoLo Ducharme Richard and her husband Brad, and Sidney Ducharme and his companion Dixie Simon; grandson Archie Ducharme and his wife Mariana; great-grandchildren Ian and Mia Ducharme, and sister Irene Roy. She is also survived by her Pomeranian Addie.

She was preceded in death by her loving husband Rex Ducharme, her brother Cody Miller and her parents Caesar and Inez Miller.

Pallbearers will be Dr. Richard Bourgeois, David Ducharme, Jason Hornback, Edward LeBlanc, III, Rocky Ducharme, and Brian Ducharme.

The family would like to thank Melissa Griffin, Vickey Wiggins, Vivian Marie Griffin, Druscilla Griffin, and Hospice of Acadiana.
