Marion "Nan" Duplantis, a beloved mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, and friend. Known for her warm heart and unwavering positivity, Nan's life was a testament to the joy and love she spread to everyone she met. She had a unique ability to make everyone feel like family, never meeting a stranger and always offering a smile. Nan dedicated herself to those she loved, finding her greatest happiness in the company of her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. Her mission was simple: to bring joy to others, and she did so effortlessly.
In her younger years, Nan was passionate about the outdoors, often tending to her garden and enjoying the beauty of nature. She and her beloved husband of 60 years, Sam, built a life together on their farming operation, raising sugarcane and cattle. Together, they nurtured their four children with love, hard work, and an unwavering commitment to each other. Nan’s legacy is one of love, kindness, and a life well-lived, and she will be deeply missed by all who had the privilege to know her.
