In Loving Memory of Millard Louis Perkins Jr.

Millard was born to Millard Louis Perkins Sr. and Marilyn Adams Perkins. He lived in Lafitte, Texas, before returning home to Louisiana. During his time in Lafitte, he worked for his father-in-law as a mechanic on crew and tug boats. He later became a mechanic for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, where his exceptional work and numerous achievements earned him a promotion and transferred to the Lake Whitney Power Generating Dam in Texas.

Millard who his friends also called him MJ, Boudreaux, Buckwheat, Joe and Jay had a passion for deer hunting and buying and selling classic show cars. He loved participating in the Cruisin’ the Coast car shows and spending time with his loved ones. His favorite car was his Pontiac Catalina, and his favorite band was The Rolling Stones. He never met a stranger and was known for his kind and friendly spirit.

Loving brother of Shelia Cardinal (Lenny), Pamela Hebert (David), and Michel Perkins.

Beloved partner of Vicky Brossette, the love of his life.

Proud great-uncle of Hunter, Macie, Royce, Remy, Reed, and Emmie Rose.
