      Mr. Doucet was a native and lifelong resident of Lafayette, the son of the late Martial Doucet and the former Clemence LeBlanc. He retired in 1970 after working 46 years as a division agent for Southern Pacific Railroad. He was a graduate of Cathedral High School and a member of the Order of Railroad Telegraphers, American Association of Retired Persons, and past member of the Lafayette Rotary Club.

      Survivors include his wife, the former Myrtle Lauve of Lafayette; four daughters, Mrs. Louis H. (Joyce) Bonin Jr., Evelyn Ann Doucet, Mrs. Louis H. (Patricia) Broussard, all of Lafayette and Mrs. Ronald (Joan) Chatelain of Baton Rouge; ten grandchildren and one great-grandchild.

      A rosary will be recited at 3 p.m. Friday in the funeral home by the Holy Family Rosary Corp.

      The family requests that visiting hours be observed until 8 p.m. Friday and from 8 a.m. to service time Saturday and that donations in his memory be made to their favorite charity.

      Delhomme Funeral Home is in charge of arrangements.
