Services Held Dec. 25 For Well Known Man
Funeral services for Anthony Scott Privat, 48, lifelong resident of Rayne and one of the community's best known and loved citizens, were held at 3 p.m. Friday, December 25, in St. Joseph Catholic Church.
Many friends joined the sorrowing family to pay final tribute to "Tony" as he was known and loved by everyone., and participated in the Christmas afternoon services with Rev. O'Neil Landry of Centerville, a cousin, officiating Present in the Sanctuary were Msgr Emery Labbe, Rev. Joseph Breaux and Rev. Kenneth Morvant.
Interment followed in the St. Joseph Cemetery with Gossen Funeral Home directing arrangements. Pallbearers included Philip Trahan, Roderick Trahan, Frank Privat, Tommy Privat, Dan Landry, Jr, and Edward S. McBride of Chase, Maryland.
Mr. Privat was stricken at his home Thursday morning and was rushed to the Rayne-Branch Hospital where he passed away at 7 a.m. on Christmas Eve.
His sudden death is a tragic loss, not only to his dear wife and other members of his family, but to the hosts of friends who had known and admired him throughout his entire lifetime.
He was the son of the late Joseph Privat and Julie McBride Privat, representing two of the early pioneer families of this community. He was reared here and graduated from St. Joseph High School, later attending the SW La Vocational-Technical School in Crowley. During World War II, he served with the U.S. Army, and upon his return to civilian life, went into business with his father operating Privat's Bakery and assisting with his father's widespread farming interests. After his father's death, Tony continued to operate the family bakery until recent months when it was closed. At the time of his death he was still managing the Privat farm.
He was an active member of the Rayne Lions Club, Woodmen of the World, Rayne Council 1897, Knights of Columbus, Msgr George Mollo Assembly, Fourth Degree Knights of Columbus, and Arceneaux Post No. 77, American Legion.
Always friendly to everyone, with a genuine smile of happiness, and a ready wit and humor which endeared him to "grown-ups" and children alike, Tony was loved by all, especially by the younger members of the family who sensed his understanding and deep affection for each of them. May cherished memories remain of his kind, quiet and sincere personality. He was never too busy to take time for a visit with friends, and he always responded in his sincere, cheerful way which was a bright part of the day for everyone meeting him. Kind and thoughtful, his life was marked by consideration for others. He and his devoted wife had recently celebrated their 25th wedding anniversary and this was a time of particular happiness for them - with friends everywhere sharing the opportunity to express their admiration for this loved couple. His sudden and untimely death came as a great shock to the community where he will be greatly missed by family and friends alike.
He is survived by his wife, the former Rita Trahan, one sister, Mrs. Edwin Ousse, of Rayne, the former Julie Privat; one niece and nephew in Rayne, Juliana Ousse and Edwin "Butch" Ousse, Jr., and 24 other nieces and nephews in this immediate area.
to the wife whom tony loved so dearly - to Julie , and to her sweet family who were such a close and intimate part of his life, Acadian-Tribune and his hosts of friends everywhere join in expressions of sincerest sympathy. And he will long be remembered for his goodness, his sweet, kind manner and his deep and abiding friendship for his fellowman. He will be remembered in the smile of a child and the gentle beauty of a quiet summer day - and in the brotherhood of man... "to have a friend is to be one" was Tony's way of life, and he lived the beautiful Christian concept day by day - a lasting and perfect memorial to a dear, lovely person. We all cherish that memory.
