Joseph T. Breaux passed away leaving behind a legacy of love, laughter, and devotion to his family. A proud father and grandfather, Joseph, found his greatest joy in spending time with his loved ones. Whether it was attending school activities for his grandchildren or sharing stories around the table, he was always present with a warm smile and a big heart. In his younger years, Joseph had a passion for the outdoors—spending countless days hunting and fishing—and he was a loyal fan of drag racing and NASCAR, never missing a race if he could help it.

For over 50 years, Joseph worked as a truck driver, forging friendships across countless miles and highways. His love for music and dancing was just as strong, and it was on a dance floor over 43 years ago that he met the love of his life, Carolyn. From that night on, they shared an unbreakable bond, dancing through life together with unwavering love and companionship. Joseph will be remembered for his kind soul, his steady presence, and the joy he brought into the lives of everyone who knew him.

Joseph T. Breaux is survived by his wife for 40 years, Carolyn Fontenot Breaux; his three children, Jason Breaux, Shawn Breaux, Kristin B. LeBlanc (Rocky); grandchildren, Jacob Thibodeaux, Jackson Thibodeaux, Karlie Thibodeaux, Annabelle LeBlanc, Chandler LeBlanc; siblings, Medmond Breaux (Patsy), Alfredia Demette (Henry), and Alena Yoder.
