A former Eunice woman and her three children perished when their vehicle was struck by another on I-10 in Baton Rouge Sunday night.

Effie "Liz" Fontenot, 29; her children, Keagan Fontenot, just turned 11; Hunter Johnson, 7; and Austin Fontenot, 3; and Kimberly Stagg, 19, all of Prairieville, died when Fontenot's car caught fire after the collision.

Many Eunice residents remember Fontenot from the time she worked at Nick's on 2nd Street.

She was working at a restaurant in Prairieville at the time of her death, as was Stagg.
