Carolyn Watts Obituary

Carolyn Ponson Watts died on October 18, 2022. She was born on June 26, 1946 in White Castle, Louisiana. Carolyn was survived by her husband of 56 years, Billy Watts, her sons Chad (Allyson), Blake (Jamie), and Alan (Kenzie); grandchildren Parker, Peyton, Avery, Abby, Briehn and Vivian; her brother Johnny Ponson (Jan); in-laws Bobby and Kate Watts, Richard and Lee Watts, Lana and Chris Cocreham; and many loving nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by her parents Stanford and Frances Ponson, brothers Richard and Michael Ponson and her granddaughter, Cora Watts. Carolyn was a 1964 graduate of Istrouma High School and retired from the LA Department of Labor. Carolyn loved her family dearly and was happiest being Mimi to her grandchildren. There were not many of their events that Mimi did not attend, near or far. She was a devout parishioner of St. Alphonsus Catholic Church where visitation will be held on Monday, October 24 at 9:30 followed by Mass at 11:00 and burial. Carolyn's family thanks her many special friends including Mary Catherine Guidry, Lucille Dickerson and Jackie Jenks, for their love and support. They sincerely appreciate the care given to Carolyn by her doctors, caregivers and The Hospice of Baton Rouge.
