Anne Hefner Gaudet passed away peacefully at her home on April 20, 2020 after 90 years of life. She was born on May 19, 1929 in Two Rivers, Wisconsin to William and Theresa Gauthier Hefner.

She was preceded in death by her parents; her sisters, Joyce Dassey of River Ridge, Ruth Glandt, Margaret Becker Koeppe, and Alice Gauthier, all of Two Rivers, WI; and her brother, John Hefner, also of Two Rivers, WI.

Anne was married to Carl J. Gaudet of New Orleans for 56 years. She was the mother of Gregory (Janet Emig), John, Anne Young (Raymond), William, Robert (Roxanne Walters), and James (Cheryl Speiss).

She was preceded in death by her husband and sons William and Robert.

Anne was grandmother to Cherie, Jamie, Danielle, Mark, Lindsey, Ross, Lane, Lauren, Brittany, Tiffany, Robbie, and Justin; great-grandmother to Blake, Jade, Michaela, Evan, Gavin, Chad, Kinley, Sydney, Olivia, Everly, and Alyssa; and great-great-grandmother to Hadley.

Anne was a devoted parishioner of St. Lawrence the Martyr Parish in Kenner and had a deep affection for the Teresian sisters.

In 1977, she was awarded the St. Louis medallion from St. Lawrence, an honor which she was very humbled to receive. When Anne and her family moved to Harahan in 1978, she joined St. Rita of Cascia Parish where she volunteered for many years. There, she was active in the Altar Society, of which she was past president, and served as a Eucharistic Minister up until her death.

She was affectionately known as the “Egg Lady” of the St. Rita Pecan Festival for her collection of confetti eggs which she stuffed throughout the year for sale at the annual parish fair.

The family will be holding a private graveside service at Lake Lawn Metairie, with a memorial service occurring at a later date.
