Marcy Lynn Lemay Jones, age 43 passed away peacefully at home on March 23, 2024, surrounded by her loving family. Marcy was born in Hammond, LA on January 30, 1981, and was a resident of Tickfaw, LA. Family meant everything to Marcy. Her children were her pride and joy. She spent most of her days making memories with them on the family “compound”. Marcy had the kindest heart and a smile and laugh that would brighten up any room. She had so many amazing talents and could never say the word no to anyone. Marcy was a 1999 graduate of St. Thomas Aquinas High School. She was an outstanding teacher at Mater Dolorosa Catholic School, her alma mater, and more recently taught at Midway Elementary School and loved her students as if they were her own. Her family rejoices in knowing that this is not goodbye but simply “see ya later”.
