Since my very sweet father, John Thibodeaux, told me my name was pronounced
Tib-a-dough, I do the same. He said in jest that he was going to change his
surname to Doe but then, he would be John Doe.

He was raised in Abbeville, La, and spoke French the first eight years of his
life. Unfortunately, he never taught it to his children. (me)
