A native and resident of New Iberia, Gordy Patrick Bourque was born on August 19, 1957, to the late Raul and Louise Romero Bourque. His journey through life was one filled with passion, warmth, and love for the simple pleasure in life.
A dedicated worker, Gordy spent many years at Berard Oilfield, where his commitment to his job was evident. Gordy enjoyed many activities. He loved to cook, delighting friends and family with delicious meals that created lasting memories around the dinner table. Gordy had a particular affinity for the thrill of horse races. Gordy could also be found playing in his favorite card games, Bourrée' and Cadillac, often accompanied by laughter and spirited competition among friends. Music was another vital component of Gordy’s life, with country songs providing the soundtrack to many of his cherished moments.
Mr. Bourque is survived by children, Andy Bourque (Elizabeth), Jamie Bourque Segura (Rockey), and Chad Bourque (Erica); wife, Bonnie Bourque; grandchildren, Kathleen Thepbanthao (Anthony), Chloe Cormier (Devin), Kohen Bourque, Destiny Louviere (Gavin), Kaden Segura, Jaxon Segura, Evalyn Bourque, Mayla Bourque, and Romee Bourque; great grandchildren, Avery Paisley, A.J. Paisley, and Asher Paisley; brother, Jerry Bourque; former wife, Emily Romero; and numerous nieces and nephews.
In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by siblings, Gerald Bourque, Bryant Bourque, Mary Lou Touchet, Joyce Sonnier, and Kerry Ann Lancon.
As we remember Gordy, we celebrate a life well-lived, a heart well-loved, and the countless ways he brightened our days. May he rest in peace.
