Obituary for Mary Fooshee Valentine
On Aug. 29, 2009, at 9:10 p.m., Mary Fooshee Valentine got her wings. She is soaring with Daddy and the rest of her family gone before her. She is at peace now. She fought a hard fight. She loved her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren so much that it made it hard for her to leave. We all surrounded her with so much love it gave her strength to take her final journey. We will continue to celebrate her life through memories and love. She was 87 and a retired security officer from the Louisiana State Penitentiary. Visitation at Charlet Funeral Home Inc., Zachary, on Monday, Aug. 31, was from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. Visitation resumes at the funeral home on Tuesday, Sept. 1, from 9 a.m. until service at 11 a.m., conducted by the Rev. Rusty Bowser. Burial at the Plank Road Baptist Church Cemetery.

Gardner and his wife, Brenda Berthelot Gardner, of Clinton, and David Mark Valentine and his wife, Kathy Verbois Valentine, of Baywood; brother, Clark Fooshee and his wife, Myrtis Jane, of Jackson; 25 grandchildren; and 22 great-grandchildren and one expected.
