Excellent work Jay. How fortunate we have been to have had this man lead US for 25 years. I met him twice and walked away humbled both times. Each time I felt I needed to be a better person. 10 minutes with that man and that’s what I walked away feelingQuote:

Even in the moment of their greatest sorrow, the members of Tony Robichaux’s family responded with the class and grace the legendary UL baseball coach always displayed at Sunday’s memorial at the Cajundome Convention Center.
Robichaux died Wednesday in New Orleans after two heart surgeries. From 3 to 9 p.m. Sunday, thousands poured into the Convention Center to help honor the winningest baseball coach and arguably the most respected coach in Ragin’ Cajun athletic history.

___________________________
The funeral is tomorrow, and the family is asking the community to take part in his funeral tomorrow.
Robichaux died Wednesday at 57.
The funeral mass will be at 2 p.m. at Our Lady of Fatima on Johnston Street. After the mass, burial will take place in Crowley at Woodlawn Cemetery, 2250 S. Avenue F.
If you'd like to participate, you should wear red and line up along any section of the route.
Here's the route:
- South on Johnston (from Fatima) to Cajundome Blvd.
- Cajundome Blvd to Eraste Landry
- Eraste Landry to Bertrand Dr.
- Bertrand Dr. to US Hwy 90 (Cameron St.)
- West on US. Hwy 90 to South Eastern Ave(LA Hwy 13) in Crowley
- South Eastern Ave. to Lovell Rd.
- Lovell Rd to South Ave F
- South on South Ave F
But the social media has not been quiet. Finding and reading the tributes from near and far is very satisfying. Robe never promoted himself. Never. I always thought he was an underappreciated leader locally because people did not know his true mission. I am happy that so many people are sharing their stories about his impact.Quote:
