Lionel Ferbos

John 11:33 says: "When Jesus saw her weeping and the Jews who had come with her weeping and groaning, he groaned within himself and became troubled." Jesus expressed tears when his friend Lazarus died, he knows how it feels to lose a dead loved one and he understands what you and your family are experiencing. May this bring you and your family comfort in this time of need. cjp (fla.)

You are in my thoughts and prayers.

TO FAMILY OF THE LATE MR. LIONEL C. FERBOS I SEND MY DEEPEST SYMPATHY PRAYERS

Mia and Family, I am saddened for you on the loss of your PaPa but I continue to cherish your loving stories about him and the rich legacy he has shared throughout time. His spirit and love of music provide us with a guide on how to grow older. My prayers are with you and your family.

To cousins Sylvia, Lori and family:
What a Blessing that God allowed Mr. Lionel to share a long and distinguished life here with us. Though I only met him for the first time last year, I told him I felt the spirit of my own father as he "patiently" sat while we compared family notes. Heaven's gain is New Orleans' lost - he was a true "Gentleman of Jazz." You are in our prayers. God Bless.

My Condolences To Mr Ferbos Family. A Blessing To Have So Many Memories For So Many Lovely Years. God Bless Y'all

A noble exponent of his musical craft; a gentleman of eceptional qualities recognised by all who met and knew him, and specially loved by his many admirers in England, and worldwide.

Dearest Ferbos Family All!
We will indeed miss our beloved icon....so sweet a life under God blessing for 103 years!
We will be coming for this historic moment in time to share the blessing of rare remembrances with the blood and love of outstanding heritage and culture.
I was a lass of 17 when I met the Ferbos family and tasted the communion of Catholic Creole interaction. We lived around the corner on Dorgenois Street and son Lionel, Sylvia,and I attended Dillard University in the late 50ties.
I lived to hear this remarkable kind and yes Holy man a rare spirit play the music that transcends modern times and made a connection to our past. Mr Ferbos lived to witness the election of our President Barack Obama's reign in 2014. Go with God for you are in his care now. Rest well our LOVE. Be happy with the only woman you married and your beloved son Lionel Jr. May God bless Krystal and MIKKI Blackwell and all grand children...Love to Daughter Sylvia, Lori,Mia, and Ron.

He loved you all so much. He is now with Lionel Jr. and Auntie and I am sure there is happiness in their meeting. Uncle's joy of music will be missed by all. He was special.

Psalms 90:10 says: “The span of our life is 70 years, Or 80 if one is especially strong”. May your fond memories comfort you and prayers strengthen you.

My sincerest condolences to the family of Lionel Ferbos. You were able to enjoy him for a long time. What a blessing.i can relate. My maternal grandfather died at 103, 3 months after his 103rd birthday. What a blessing he was to me. In reading Mr. Ferbos' obituary, you can be very proud of him and his accomplishments. He lived doing what he loved most almost to the end. Bless his heart. May he rest in peace.

I'm sorry for your loss. Psalm 90:10 said: The span of our life is 70 years, or 80 if one is especially strong. But they are filled with trouble and sorrow; They quickly pass by, and away we fly.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.
