Our Next Employee Spotlight: Latrell Granger Volunteer Coordinator
Born and raised in Lafayette, Louisiana, Latrell Granger is a true people person with a heart for service. She attended St. Leo Seton School, Northside High School, and later UL Lafayette, where she majored in Business and Marketing—a foundation that perfectly complements her passion for connecting with others.
Latrell is a proud mom of two daughters, one son, and also 3 step daughters. Latrell has been happily married to her husband, Kenny, for 16 years.
With an impressive and diverse background, Latrell spent 18 years in retail, 20 years in modeling for multiple retail shops and companies, and later worked at Acadian Imaging. She then worked with a neurologist for 3 years before finding her calling in hospice. Latrell has dedicated a combined 15 years as a Volunteer Coordinator across three hospice organizations, including four years with SouthernCare Hospice.
In her role, Latrell assists staff, coordinates volunteers for friendly companion visits, respite support, food delivery, errands, flower programs, birthday calls, and “tuck-in” calls—ensuring every patient feels supported and cared for.
What draws Latrell to hospice is her deep compassion, empathy, and desire to give back. She describes hospice work as fulfilling and a blessing—both to her and to the patients she serves. When you meet Latrell, you’ll immediately notice her infectious smile, vibrant personality, charm, and positive spirit. “She truly does not have a negative bone in her body.”
Outside of work, Latrell stays busy cheering on her son in baseball ⚾️, attending many events for her grandchildren and spending time with her family. Her hobbies include modeling, dancing, singing, enjoying the sun and outdoors, relaxing by the pool, online shopping (a little retail therapy!), and loving on her animals.
Looking ahead, Latrell’s goals for the next 10 years include continuing to work and serve as much as she can, traveling, and supporting her son as he pursues his dream of earning a full college baseball scholarship. Above all, she cherishes time spent with her family as God and family are the center of everything she does.
We are so grateful to have Latrell’s heart, energy, and compassion on our team. 💚😇
