Louis Joseph Dufilho Jr. died on 15 April at his home in Suevres, a town of Loir-et-Cher.
He was a resident of that town. Age 67, husband of Adele Becnel. He was born in Mirande, a town of Gers, to deceased Jean ____Dufilho, and Jeanne Marie Bonnet.

It does not mention where he was buried, but most likely in the town of Suerves.

Thanks so much T.
There are so many cemeteries in Sevres I just did a search, this is going to be difficult to figure out where he is buried.

It’s not Sèvres, in the southwestern suburbs of Paris. but Suèvres in the department of Loir-et-Cher, Centre-Val de Loire as Tessa pointed out.

Yes, Suèvres ... perhaps at or near the church there?

Interesting article by the History Channel on Monsieur Dufilho.
