Nell Mae Smith Rozas was born in Ville Platte, LA on May 7, 1924 to Cyriac and Evelia Fontenot Smith. She worked as a bookkeeper at G. Ardoin's and Company for 20 plus years. Her devotion to family and her faith was apparent every day. She spent over 25 years serving her church as a Eucharistic Minister, cleaning and maintaining the rectory, preparing meals, and assisting the church with weddings and funerals.

She will be missed dearly by all who knew and loved her.

She is survived by her son, Mitchell Rozas and wife Angela of Ville Platte, daughter, Deanna Rozas Saucier of Ville Platte; 7 grandchildren; and 12 great-grandchildren.

She is preceded in death by her husband of 49 years, Clarence Rozas; parents, Cyriac and Evelia Fontenot Smith; and sisters, Ludy Mae Rozas and Verlie Terracina.
