Betty Ann Duplechain Reeves, 82, of Topsy, La., on March 12, 2024, has joined her dance partner, Wayne, in Heaven and the floors are smoking tonight! Their dance started long ago when they met and married. Now there are no aches or weary legs to slow them down. Dance on!

Betty was born Oct. 3, 1941 to parents Delco and Ella Duplechain of Lake Charles, La. She married Wayne Reeves on April, 23, 1966 and were married 53 wonderful years until Wayne’s passing. Together they had a wonderful family.

Betty loved with all of her heart and lived for her family. She enjoyed porch sitting with a coke and a smoke, watching her kids and grandkids play in the yard. She was always into whatever the kids or grandkids were into and always cheered them on.
