25 January 2006 Coleen Perilloux Landry

Charles Joseph Perilloux, Sr. (my oldest brother)

Baton Rouge, Louisiana

My oldest brother, Charles, age 92 years old. He worked on the building of the Bonnet Carre' Spillway as a member of the Civilian Conservation Corps, a program founded during the Great Depression to give employment to people and to develop programs in the United States.
Sadly, he burned to death in a fire that consumed his house early on the morn of December 13, 2006.
And, ohhhh, how he loved to dance, especially to Cajun and Zydeco music.

Coleen I am so sorry for your loss. I wish I would have had the honor of meeting him.
I am saddened that your heart is blue, and I am glad I am able to spend time with you.

I just know he's up there telling St. Peter what's wrong with the Pearly Gates.
