Lynn John Champagne, Sr., a native and former resident of Franklin and current 
resident of Sorrel, passed away unexpectedly at the age of 63 on Thursday, 
January 29, 2015, at Franklin Foundation Hospital. 

He had a love of the water and enjoyed fishing, cutting his grass, and telling 
stories. He was an employee of the St. Mary Sugar Co-Op for the past nine 
years. His true passion in life though was his grandkids. He will be sorely 
missed by his family and fondly remembered by all who knew him.

Survivors include his wife of 32 years, Judy Borel Champagne; his children, 
Lynn John Champagne, Jr., Timothy Hiles, Sr., David Wayne Champagne, Jeff 
Hiles, Keeley Higgins, and Ricky Champagne, Sr.; three brothers, Bill 
Champagne, Mike Champagne, and Keith Champagne; two sisters, Evelyn Derouen and 
Paula Derouen; numerous grandchildren, one great granddaughter, and many nieces 
and nephews.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Sterling Champagne, Sr. and Anna 
Robicheaux Champagne; one brother, Sterling Champagne, Jr.; an infant sister, 
Sharon Champagne; as well as two grandchildren.

The family will hold a private memorial service at a later date, celebrating 
the life of Mr. Lynn.

Arrangements have been entrusted to Ibert's Mortuary, Inc., 1007 Main Street,
