Klibert

Marian Petit Klibert, age 95, a native of Good Hope, Louisiana, and longtime resident of Reserve, Louisiana, entered into eternal rest on Saturday, September 5th, 2026 surrounded by her beloved family.

Marian was born July 28, 1931 to the late Roger and Leonie Petit of Good Hope, Louisiana. She always spoke fondly of her childhood memories from Good Hope, growing up with numerous siblings and cousins. She graduated in 1950 from Destrehan High School and in 1953, she married the love of her life, Curtis. Together they moved to Reserve, Louisiana, where they built their home, raised their children, and created a beautiful family legacy.

Her faith and love in Christ inspired her everyday and she lived her life with a quiet devotion to Him filled with grace and love. Her faith was her main source of love and strength throughout her life and was reflected in the way she cared for everyone around her. After her love for Jesus, Marian’s love for her family was most important to her. She cherished every minute spent with her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren.

Marian spent many years as a member of the St. Peter’s Women’s Altar Society, generously volunteering her time in service to her church and community. Marian was also an avid reader, a creative seamstress, and had a green thumb that showed beautifully in her flower garden. Blessed with an impressive memory and a keen attention to detail, Marian lovingly preserved the stories and memories of her family.

Marian was preceded in death by her husband Curtis Klibert, her first born son George, her grandson Brenton Crawford, her godchild Brandon Petit, and siblings Emmett Petit (Gertie), Charles Ray Petit, Roger “R.J.” Petit, Delma Guidry (Roy), and Martha Mamola (Frank).

She is survived by her children, Cynthia Crawford, Chris Klibert (Kelly), and Janine Mohon (Stephen); sister,Geraldine Lovell and husband Roy; sister-in-law, Karen Petit; 9 grandchildren, Jeremy Crawford (Casey), Justin Langley, Stephen Mohon (Rachel), Meghan Crawford (Trevor), Christin Mohon, Courtney Bourgeois (Paul), Evan Langley, Sean Mohon (Caroline), and Heath Mohon (Pylar); and 13 great-grandchildren, Tyler, Gavin, Kate, Lyla, Olivia, Ryan, Jacob, Eric, Riley, Wells, Leo, Valorie, and baby boy Mohon.
