Devoted daughter of Charlie and Toon Andermann Folse. Wife of Dr. Dale K Pollet. Mother of Nicholle and Shannon, wife Christine, Pollet. MonMon to Madison Noel and Evelyn Ray Pollet. Sister of Loretta Folse, husband James, Stein and nephews Theron, wife Lisa, and Scotty, wife Julie, Stein. Friend to numerous loved cousins. She was born in her parents's loving Lutcher, LA, home. She would meet her husband of 54 years at age 13 and together in 1962 they would graduate Lutcher High School. Proudly earning her 1965 Elementary Education degree from LSU, she would begin a teaching career that we today continue to see the effects of. In 1968, she and her husband would venture to Blacksburg, Virginia. It is here she would leave a lasting impression on a Belview Elementary 7th grade class. Forty years later she would reunite with 7 of those 7th graders, now adults. That evening remains the cherry atop her educational career. Virginia would also supply her with life-long friends and provide a family away from home, the Links. "When I am sad, the sound of Grandma Link's voice cheers me up." A second move, this time to Clemson, South Carolina in 1972, would find her and her family in the welcoming Southern hospitality filled arms of lasting friendships. In 1978 she return to her familial roots in Louisiana where she would continue to teach according to each child's needs. "There is no greater high than the moment a child knows they can read" would become the driving force behind her years as a first grade teacher at Wildwood Elementary where she finished her career. She encouraged parents to be their child's educational advocate. She showed love to each child as though her own. "There will always be someone Heaven sent to 'go out on a limb' for me until I can make that journey myself." A devotion to our Blessed Mother, Mary, and a trust in God permeated her life. She encouraged all to slow down at the end of every day and single out one thing for grateful consideration. Aunt Catoon and she would pray continuously for the happiness and health of the entire family. She was grateful for family and time spent together. She would "jump for joy" with her prized granddaughters. She celebrated life and was grateful for every minute of hers and ours. In her own words: I give thanks for being awashed with happy memories of my friends Charles Griffin, Calvin Vicknair, and Mrs. Martin and memories of my family: Mame Toon, Papa Joe and Paren (Te-nom). I give thanks for the happiest memories of my life: my sister and her family, my Clemson friends, and my Virginia family, Uncle Buck & Aunt Kat, Mildred "Nola" Chapman and Allen Loviere as well as my Doris Ann and Guy Poché family who shows love so easily to my own family and include us in happy times all year long. And especially the love of Aunt Zene, Uncle Jimmy, Aunt Ella, Uncle Bill, Paren Larry and Aunt Barbara who love my Dale so much. It is indeed an Oh! Happy Day in Heaven.

Marist Father Primeaux, Teacher, Author, Dies
Marist Father Patrick Dwayne Primeaux, 61, died Aug. 25 at the Marist community residence at Marist School. He had been struggling with cancer for a year. As his strength deteriorated over this past summer, he made the decision to leave his residence near St. John's University in Queens, N.Y., where he had been teaching, and move to Atlanta to spend his remaining weeks and months surrounded by his fellow Marist priests and brothers. He had just arrived in Atlanta the night before, and after what appeared to be a peaceful and comfortable night, he slipped away the next morning. Father Primeaux was born in Abbeville, La., on Feb. 1, 1947, the son of Isaac Primeaux and Jeanne Picard Primeaux. He attended college at the Marist Seminary in Washington, D.C., and professed his first vows in the Society of Mary on Sept. 12, 1968. He earned a bachelor's degree in education at the University of Louisiana. He taught for a year at Marist School in Atlanta, 1971-1972. After this, he earned a master's degree in theology from St. Michael's College at the University of Toronto, Canada. Father Primeaux was ordained to the priesthood in his home parish in Lafayette on May 27, 1977. Following ordination, Father Primeaux earned his Ph.D. at St. Michael's College. He combined parish and campus work at St. Peter Church and Cleveland State University, in Cleveland, Ohio. He also served as pastor of Sacred Heart Church, Gramercy, La., from 1980-88. He earned a master's degree in business administration from Southern Methodist University, Dallas, in 1989 and stayed on to teach business ethics as an adjunct professor. After serving as an associate pastor at the Marist parish of St. Louis King of France in St. Paul, Minn., from 1990-92, Father Primeaux began a 15-year-long association with St. John's University in Queens, N.Y., eventually serving as the chairman of the department of theology and religious studies. He published numerous articles in both Catholic and business journals and wrote several books, including "The Moral Passion of Bruce Springsteen," published in 1996. Those who knew Father Primeaux were touched by his warm affability and enthusiasm in whatever he did. He had an active imagination, especially in light-hearted humor, which could turn instantly to a rapier wit. Yet he could also immediately switch to the deepest efforts of the intellect to analyze and explain the mysteries of life. Father Primeaux was preceded in death by his father and is survived by his mother, Jeanne, and three sisters, Yvette Lantier of Scott, La., Virginia Suire of Baton Rouge, and Yvonne Primeaux of Lafayette, and a brother, Eric Primeaux of Kenner, La. The funeral Mass for Father Patrick Primeaux was held Sept. 3, in Gramercy, La. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations and Mass intentions may be made to the Marist Society, 4408 8th Street, NE, Washington, D.C., 20017-2298.
