Graveside services for Billie Joyce Caughron Lambert, 93, will be held at 11:00 a.m. on Wednesday, August 19, 2020 at Kilpatrick’s Serenity Gardens in West Monroe under the direction of Kilpatrick Funeral Home ~ Monroe.

Billie was born May 8, 1927 in Abilene, Texas and passed away on August 16, 2020 in Alexandria, Louisiana.  She is preceded in death by her parents, E.W. and Johnnie Ruth Caughron; sister, Agnes Caughron Rich; step-mother, Eunice Caughron; husband, Don Barron; son, Steve Barron; daughter, Donna Barron; and husband, Dennis Lambert.

 Billie is survived by her sisters, Thetus Tenney and Becky Fall; daughter-in-law, LaTayne (Toni) Gott; grandsons, Gavin and Jason Barron; great-grandchildren, nieces, nephews, great-nieces, great-nephews, and a host of treasured friends.

Just a few moments in her presence and you knew she was special.  She had a unique calling that spanned generations.  She was a communicator – with the most difficult audiences of all – little children and seasoned ministers.  She was a respected builder of Sunday Schools – from room design and “center of interest” tables to art projects and Bible lessons.  She believed the old song, “Everybody ought to go to Sunday School!” and made it true by creating Sunday School spaces and places that everyone wanted to be.  She earned her nickname well – “The Sunday School Lady!”

She loved God.  She loved people.  She loved her family. . . both those tied to her by biology and blood – and those whose hearts God had knit with hers in the times of their lives.  She was much loved and loved much.  We are grateful to have known her . . . to have called her sister . . . aunt . . . grandmother . . . friend.
