FABRE, GERALD JAMES 
May 5, 1939 – March 20, 2013

Gerald James Fabre, 73, a native of Morgan City and a resident of Bayou Lourse 
for 40 years passed away, March 20, 2013 at his residence while surrounded by 
his loved ones.

To cherish Gerald's memories, he leaves his loving wife of 41 years, Jennie 
Rodriguez Fabre of Bayou Lourse, four sons, Clement Paul Fabre of Bayou Lourse, 
Scotty Fabre of Ricohoc, Blaine Fabre of Texas, and Fabian Breaux of Bayou 
Lourse; two daughters, Radonna Richard of Eunice, and Antoinette Fabre of 
Texas; two sisters, Kay of Bayou Vista, and Rena of Morgan City; one brother-
in-law, Poochie of Bayou Vista; three sister-in-laws, Anna of Berwick, Markeita 
of Berwick, and Verna of Morgan City; and numerous grandchildren and great 
grandchildren.

In heaven, Gerald joins his parents, Clement and "Tilly" Fabre and numerous 
brothers and sisters.

For 20 dedicated years, Gerald worked for Vincent Guard as the supervisor. A 
certified gun instructor, he also enjoyed hunting and taking his grandchildren 
fishing, especially with Brandy, Alexa and Lambert, who were known as his 
favorite fishing partners. 
Just as much as he enjoyed fishing, he also enjoyed his wife's good cooking. 
His wife fondly remembers how Gerald never removed his wedding band, a true 
mark of a perfect husband. "You couldn't find a sweeter man if you tried!" his 
wife, Jennie stated before adding, "but most importantly, he was honest. He 
hated lies." To put it simply, Gerald was a trustworthy husband, father, 
grandfather, and friend, a person who knew the true meaning of love.

A time of remembrance will be held for Gerald on Sunday, March 24th at 10am 
until time of services at 2pm at Hargrave Funeral Home in Morgan City.
The funeral home will reopen for visitation Monday, March 25th at 9am with 
dismissal at 9:45am followed by 

graveside services in the Morgan City Cemetery 

where Gerald will be laid to rest.
