Alice Lora (Maddox) Thibodeaux

Alice Lora Thibodeaux, 74, of Liberty, Texas passed away on Monday, June 15, 2020 at her home in Liberty, Texas. She was born on August 1, 1945 in Bunkie, Louisiana to parents Charlie and Rosa Maddox who preceded her in death along with her beloved husband, Donald James Thibodeaux. Alice was also preceded in death by 4 brothers and 3 sisters. 

Mrs. Thibodeaux lived in England before moving to Liberty 41 years ago where she was a member of First Baptist Church Devers. Alice truly had a heart of gold. She was a Foster Parent for nearly 30 years in which time she had over 100 children pass through her home, many who would still call her often and even refer to her as “Mom”. Alice loved to cook and take care of her family, but her greatest joy came from watching Clara and Cam play. Alice was so proud to see her grandchildren (Ashley and Jackson) graduate from college and become educators. She will be dearly missed by all who knew and loved her.

She is survived by her daughter, LaDonna Pope and husband Bobby; granddaughter, Ashley Smart and husband Kirk; grandson, Jackson Pope; great-grandchildren, Clara and Cam Smart; brother, Ronnie Maddox and wife Brenda, along with numerous nieces and nephews. Close to her heart were, Ginger Sanders and Melissa Dyer.

Services will begin at 11:00 a.m. with interment to follow at Liberty Catholic Cemetery.
