Stoute LeBlanc

Stoute "T-Stoute" LeBlanc, a beloved husband, father, grandfather, and friend, passed away peacefully on May 3, 2025, in Jennings, Louisiana. Born on September 17, 1942, in Lafayette, Louisiana, Stoute lived a life filled with love, warmth, and service to others.

Stoute proudly served his country in the United States Army from March 1, 1967, until October 18, 1968. After his service, he drove 18-wheelers where he reconnected with old friends from his Army days and often reminisced about the adventures they shared. In recent years, he turned his passion for driving into a career as a bus driver for the Acadia Parish School Board, where he touched the lives of countless children and families.

A dedicated family man, Stoute is survived by his loving wife, Nadine LeBlanc; his sons, Ferroll (Hollie) LeBlanc and Tony (Monica) Efthemes; his daughters, Cindy Pochmara and Tobi Thibodeaux; his brother, Robert (Lou) Breaux; brother in law, Randy Osmond; and his special niece, Angela Benson. He treasured his grandchildren: Lane LeBlanc, Emilie Cole, Trevor Maggiore, Eadan Efthemes, Samantha Efthemes, Sean Stroman, Christopher Stroman, Hannah Rankin, Holly Rankin, Hayden Pochmara, Leslie Barber, Marcus Penn, Alisha Pochmara-Reuven; along with fourteen great-grandchildren who brought him immense joy.

Stoute was preceded in death by his parents, Stoute and Rose Anna LeBlanc; son, Burton "Burt" LeBlanc, his brothers, Leeford Breaux and Buford Breaux; and his sister, Rusty Breaux.

A gathering of family and friends will be held at the Miguez Funeral Home on Thursday May 8, 2025, from 3:00 PM to 8:30 PM. Visitation will resume Friday May 9, 2025, at 8:00 AM until the time of service at 1:00 PM.

He will be laid to rest in Istre Cemetery in Morse, LA, under the direction of Miguez Funeral Home.
