Mr. Blanchard was a lifelong resident of this area and worked as a commercial electrician.  He loved to BBQ and often did for his friends and family.  He loved to garden and taking care of his orange trees was a priority. He served his country admirably as a Marine in the Korean Conflict.

He is survived by his son, Jimmy (Joyce) Moss of Hathaway; two sisters, Vivian Trahan and Ruth Duhon, both of Jennings; and two grandchildren, Chad Royer and Wallace Moss; four great grandchildren, Madison Moss, Morgan Kershaw, Dillon Royer and Ashton Royer; one great-great grandson, Benjamin Breaux and his best friend, Albert Kibodeaux.

Loved ones preceding him in death were his wife, Leona LeJeune Blanchard; parents, Claude Blanchard and Ola Marie Fontenot; granddaughter, Jamie Moss; and two sisters, Carrie LeJeune and Bernice Trahan.

Special thanks to Cindy Monceaux for her love and devotion and tremendous help.
