Great-grandmother of Kiersten, Alex, Isabella, Alexis, Jourdan, Todd Jr., Bobby and Christopher. Sister of Mattie Breaux, the late Agnes LeBlanc, Jennie Rodrigue, Marie Boudreaux, Betty Hebert and Gilmore Acosta. Daughter of the late Louis Acosta and Mary Martin Acosta LeBlanc. Also survived by other loving nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.
Rosalie enjoyed spending time with her family and friends. Everyone knew which holiday was coming because she would start preparing months in advance. She would often have holiday gatherings and parties at her house. She was a talented home cook and her family loved to eat her oyster dressing and have her signature lemon ice-box pie for dessert. Her main focus was her love and devotion to her children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren and family. She will be sadly missed but her life and legacy will be celebrated.
The family would like to extend their gratitude to the staff of Riverbend Nursing and Rehab and Hospice Compassus for the excellent care and heartfelt compassion shown during this time.
