Gerard Aguillard Obituary

Gerard Dale Aguillard, born in Rougon, LA on June 8, 1951, passed away July 10, 2022, in Prairieville, LA. A lover of travel, food, theater, games of chance and spending time with family and friends, Dale was a devout Catholic and treasured member of the extended Aguillard family. He was preceded in death by his parents, Howard and Julia Aguillard, sister Jerrie Beaucoudray, brother Ronnie Aguillard and nephew Neil Gerard Beaucoudray. Left to cherish his memory are his sisters Pat Frederick of Belle Chasse and Diane Oquin (Billy) of Baton Rouge. While Dale had no children of his own, he was a beloved uncle to 13 nieces and nephews and their children. A proud veteran, Dale served his country as a First Lieutenant assigned to Minot Air Force Base as a Missile Launch officer. He was a retired Human Resources professional from the City of Baton Rouge. Throughout his life, Dale traveled extensively and recently loved cruising with his sister, Pat. For many years he was active in the local Baton Rouge theater community and served as a lector at both St. Alphonsus and St. John the Evangelist. Dale was also a member of the Canary Islanders Heritage Association of Louisiana. The twinkle in those beautiful hazel eyes and his infectious laugh will never be forgotten. Services will be held July 18 at St. John the Evangelist Catholic Church in Prairieville, LA starting with a Rosary at 9:30am, visitation at 10:00am followed by Mass of Christian Burial at 11:30am. In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital or a charity of your choice. https://www.churchfuneralservices.com/2022/07/14/in-loving-memory-of-gerard-dale-aguillard/

My condolences to Dale´s beautiful family. Dale had a heart of gold and was a true friend. I had the joy of seeing him act, our `retiree´ group frequently ate dinner together and I enjoyed hearing numerous stories about his travels all over the world. He had a sharp wit and great humor and was a joy to be around. He will be missed and was loved. Wishing his family comfort and peace in the days to come. God Bless.
