He served his country in the U.S. Army during the Vietnam Era. He received his Pest and Termite License from Louisiana State University and was the owner and operator of Lake City Pest Control. For forty-three years, he has enjoyed working and spending time with his customers. Mr. Thibodeaux not only sponsored numerous children’s sports throughout the years, but he donated his time and his talents cooking for them also.

He was also an old car enthusiast and was currently restoring his dream car, a 1974 Cadillac ElDorado. He was a member of St. Margaret Catholic Church, where he served as an usher. He will always be remembered as an outstanding husband and amazing father and grandfather, who passed on his work ethics to those he loved.
