David Joseph Leger, 60, passed away unexpectedly on Sunday, July 2, 2017, at 
his residence in Thibodaux, Louisiana.

He was a wonderful, caring, loving, son, brother, husband, father, grandfather, 
and friend. He was very family oriented. He loved family gatherings and enjoyed 
bringing his Bose to share his love for music at family gatherings. He often 
talked about the fun times spent with his family, especially at Disney. He was 
kind to everyone he met and loved to talk and get to know people. He always put 
others needs above his own. He took great pride in talking about his and his 
wife's ownership of Hideaway Ponds Campground in Gibson, LA., for which he 
spent many years of hard work to make it a nice, safe place for friends and 
families to meet and enjoy.

David was born June 25, 1957, in Thibodaux, Louisiana, to parents Clinton 
Joseph Leger, Jr. and Dolores Smith Leger.

He will be sadly missed and lovingly remembered by his wife Wanda Hawkes Leger,

LA, and Sara Hebert, and husband Beau, of Richmond, TX; two grandchildren, 
Clinton Leger and Jane Leger; two sisters, Denise L. McGaw, and husband Dr. 
Harry J. McGaw, of Houma, LA, and Vickie L. Turner of Denham Springs, LA; and 
brother, James C. Leger, of Thibodaux, LA. He will also be missed and lovingly 
remembered by his stepsons, Michael A. Ryan of Lockport, LA and Duane P. Ryan, 
and companion Lori Bynum, of Bayou Blue, LA; and stepdaughters Jennifer D. 
Ryan, of Raceland LA, and Angela D. Fine, and husband Chris, of Mathews, LA; 
also by his twelve step grandchildren, who loved their "Paw Dave".

He was preceded in death by his parents, Clinton Joseph Leger, Jr. and Dolores 
Smith Leger and son Eric David Leger.
