Judy Ann Dale LaCoste Crochet

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Judy Ann Dale LaCoste Crochet, who left us on February 14, 2026, at the age of 71. Born on October 3, 1954, in Morgan City, Louisiana, Judy was a cherished mother, grandmother, sister, and friend who spent her life making a difference in the lives of those around her.

Judy’s unwavering dedication to her work as a bookkeeper at Harold’s Supermarket and as a bank teller at MC Bank were just two of the many ways she influenced her community. She was known for her warm smile and kind heart, always ready to lend a hand or share a laugh.

Judy’s legacy will live on through her family, who loved her dearly.

Judy was preceded in death by her husband, Gerald “Jerry” Crochet, Jr.; her parents, Agnolia and Paul LaCoste, Sr.; and her sisters, Juanita Ganaway, Maria Sheehan, and Marilyn Pye.
