BiographyWarren Boudreaux was born in Berwick, Louisiana, to Alphonse Louis and Loretta Marie (née Senac) Boudreaux.[1] After graduating from Berwick Junior High School, he studied at St. Joseph's Seminary near Covington and at Notre Dame Seminary in New Orleans.[2] He also attended the Seminary of Saint-Sulpice in Paris, France.[2] Returning to Louisiana, he was ordained to the priesthood on May 30, 1942.[3] He then served as a curate at St. Michael's Church in Crowley until 1943, when he was sent to study at the Catholic University of America in Washington, D.C., later earning a doctorate in canon law in 1946.[1] Boudreaux became vice-chancellor of the Diocese of Lafayette and secretary to Bishop Jules Jeanmard in 1946, and was named a Papal Chamberlain in 1950.[1] In addition to these duties, he served as Defender of the Bond (1947–1950) and officialis (1950–1954) on the diocesan court.[1] He served as pastor of St. Peter's Church at New Iberia from 1954 to 1971, and was made vicar general of the diocese in 1956.[1] He was raised to the rank of Domestic Prelate in 1958.[1] On May 19, 1962, Boudreaux was appointed Auxiliary Bishop of Lafayette and Titular Bishop of Calynda by Pope John XXIII.[3] He received his episcopal consecration on the following July 25 from Archbishop Egidio Vagnozzi, with Archbishop John Cody and Bishop Maurice Schexnayder serving as co-consecrators.[3] Following the transfer of Bishop Vincent Madeley Harris to the Diocese of Austin, Boudreaux was named the second Bishop of Beaumont, Texas, by Pope Paul VI on June 4, 1971.[3] He remained at Beaumont for six years, when he was appointed the first Bishop of the newly erected Diocese of Houma-Thibodaux in his native Louisiana on March 2, 1977.[3] He was well known for placing a ban on church fairs in 1985, objecting to the presence of alcohol and overall frivolity at such events.[4] Shortly before reaching the mandatory retirement age of 75, Boudreaux resigned as bishop on December 29, 1992.[3] He later died from heart failure at age 79.[4] References1. ^1 2 3 4 5 {{cite book|last=Curtis|first=Georgina Pell|title=The American Catholic Who's Who|volume=XIV|year=1961|publisher=Walter Romig|location=Grosse Pointe, Michigan}} 2. ^1 {{cite news|work=Roman Catholic Diocese of Houma-Thibodaux|title=First Bishop of Houma-Thibodaux|url=http://www.htdiocese.org/ClergyReligious/ClergyReligiousDirectory/tabid/55/Default.aspx}} 3. ^1 2 3 4 5 {{cite news|work=Catholic-Hierarchy.org|title=Bishop Warren Louis Boudreaux|url=http://www.catholic-hierarchy.org/bishop/bboudr.html}} 4. ^1 {{cite news|date=1997-10-07|work=The Advocate|title=Retired Bishop Warren Boudreaux dies}} Episcopal succession{{s-start}}{{s-rel|ca}}{{succession box |before=Vincent Madeley Harris | title=Bishop of Beaumont| years=1971—1977 | after=Bernard J.
