Geraldine "Deanie" C. Walters

Funeral Services will be held at 4:00 PM on Thursday, May 27, 2021 in Delhomme Chapel of the Flowers for Geraldine "Deanie" C. Walters, 97, who passed away on May 24, 2021. Pastor Jason Miller, of Amana Christian Fellowship, will conduct the funeral services. "Deanie", a resident of Maurice, was the daughter of the late William Canty and the former Orelia Dinger. Deanie was born and raised in Morgan City, LA and raised her family in Baton Rouge, spending the last 30 plus years in the Lafayette/Maurice area. Her loving and adventurous spirit transferred into her children and grandchildren. She loved a Sunday drive to any unknown destination, be it to visit family in South LA or beloved friends in Anahuac, Texas. Her home was always open, coffee in the pot and cards ready to shuffle. She was known for always wearing a beautiful Broche, even with a sweatshirt as she worked in her yard. It was impossible to greet or leave her presence without a hug. There were a few things that she took extreme pride in: her Irish heritage, her family’s property at Shell Island and both her extended Canty Family and her immediate Walters family. She will be greatly missed, until we are in Heaven with her, hearing her sweet greeting of “Oh Darlin, it is so good to see you”. She is survived by her daughter, Stephany W. LeBlanc (Emile) of Prairieville, LA; son, Art J. Walters Jr. (Bonnie) of Carencro, LA; son, Terry A. Walters (Sherry) of Gonzales, LA; daughter, Kimberly W. Robertson of Denham Springs, LA; daughter, Jade W. Landry (Chris) of Maurice, LA; sister, Myrtle "Dutsy" Fromenthal of Brownsville, TX; brother, Clayton "Buster" Canty of Berwick, LA; and 16 grandchildren, 30 great-grandchildren & 8 great-great grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her husband of 68 years, Art J. Walters Sr; granddaughters, Allison A. Walters and Lauri Walters Bodin; grandson, Terrance Zachariah (Zac) Walters; great-grandsons, Joseph Aaron Tramel and Broddy Jacob Maxwell; and parents, William and Orelia Canty.
