Ann Bordelon Reeves Minnie was my aunt. She was a wonderful person. I never heard her say anything that wasn't kind. She loved nursing. She took care of everyone. She will be missed. Prayers to the family.
Ann Bordelon April 11, 2022
I called her Minnie and she was a wonderful sister-in-law who welcomed me into the Bordelon family with a warmth and kindness that still comforts me whenever I think of her. She shared her love of life with many people and made the world around her a better place. Right now I'm crying because I will not see her again, but I'm also smiling because I had the privilege of knowing her. Ann Bordelon
