Jeanne Zélie Rigaut was born Mar 11, 1886 in the village of Sâacy-sur-Marne, Seine-et-Marne, France. Jeanne was the daughter of Emilina Rudet and Emile Rigaut. She was the sister of Arsène, René, and André Rigaut, who all remained in France.
She emigrated to the United States on September 19, 1914. In November 1915 Jeanne married Dominique Arnau at the church of St. Vincent de Paul in New York City. From 1923 to 1939 Jeanne was the Chef of the executive dining room at the United Piece Dye Works in Lodi. After retiring, she lived for many years in Hasbrouck Heights. Jeanne had one daughter, and two grandchildren.
On December 30, 1967 Jeanne passed away after a series of small strokes. She was buried in the churchyard of St. Francis de Sales Church, the family parish during the years they lived in Lodi.
Jeanne was an extremely generous and loving woman. Her legacy to her family was the best any mother or grandmother could offer: through her great example, she showed us all how to truly love one another. After all these years, she lives within us still.
