Students of the St. Francis Xavier school in Acushnet place pink carnations in front of a statue of Marie, to honor Therese Ledoux (the school's kindergarten teacher for thirty years) as her funeral motorcade drove by.  Mrs. Ledoux was 103 years old when she passed away last week, and was a regular presence at the Acushnet school long after she retired. PHOTO PETER PEREIRA
