IN LOVING MEMORY OF
Nov 17, 1940 — May 17, 2022
Jane Cunningham Oubre was born on November 17, 1940 and passed away on May 17, 2022 after a lengthy battle with dementia. She was 81 years old.
Jane was a native and resident of Lutcher, Louisiana and was retired after 37 years of employment from Shell Oil in Norco as the Plant Manager's Senior Secretary.
Jane was a devout Catholic who was also a longtime member of the Catholic Daughters. Some of her favorite things were the color purple, Diet Cokes, and shopping. Jane had an amazing talent for making the most beautiful bows when wrapping presents. She had a heart of gold and loved to bless others with gifts. There was frequently a box of goodies in the mail from her. Jane had a sense of humor and would often make you laugh as she stated, "As if!" when responding to questions.
Jane absolutely loved spending time with her family. She was a devoted and loving mother to her only son, Michael Oubre, who preceded her in death in 2021. She was a fantastic mother-in-law to Jamie Oubre and a wonderful Granny to her two granddaughters, Grace and Faith Oubre.
Jane is preceded in death by both of her parents, Martin and Sis Cunningham, and by her sister, Wilma Scheidler (late Will Scheidler).
Jane is survived by her baby sister, Maureen LeBoeuf (Chris) and by her big brother, Cleve Cunningham (Rae) who have been great siblings and who have helped her tremendously over the years. She is also survived by numerous family and friends who loved her dearly, including, but certainly not limited to: her niece, Hollie Zeringue (Ryan) and Family; her nephew, Chris LeBoeuf (Helah) & Family; her niece, London Allyn (Gary) and Family; her niece, Tiffeny Francis (Roy) and Family; her nephew, Stephen Cunningham (Toni) and Family; her nephew, David Cunningham; and her longtime friend, Janet Kesey (late Billy Kesey).
The family would like to extend heartfelt appreciation to everyone who has loved Jane over her lifetime and to thank Chateau St. James Nursing Home and Amedisys Hospice for caring for her.
Family and friends are invited to attend the Visitation and Funeral Service. In Jane's honor, all are encouraged to wear something purple. This could be anything from clothing to jewelry.
