Our condolences to the Bordelon family. My husband and I are long time customers at Rainbow and Rob worked on our vehicles for over 10 years. He was a kind and wonderful person and also a really great mechanic. He was very proud of every member of his family and often spoke about fishing, hunting, and camping trips. We were fortunate to have seem him about two weeks before he passed. It was such a shock to find out that he is no longer with us. May he rest in peace. Continued prayers for your family.

I can't believe it's been a week already and that in just a few days we'll be saying our final goodbyes today. I can't wrap my head around all of this and accept that Monday is the last time I'll physically see you. In just a short week I can honestly say this is the hardest thing I've ever in countered. How do you continue on every day life with out someone that has been in it for 23 years. I'll forever cherish every single moment/memory that we shared. Please know that I'll make sure mawmaw is okay, and know that she's been trying her hardest to stay strong. Please guide her and all of us through this hard time. We all miss you so much. I hope heaven is as beautiful as they say, and i hope your reunited with all of your family up there. Please save our spots next to you. Love you so much pawpaw. Love, your Lulu/Jelly ❤

My heart is breaking for my sister Kathy and her Children and Grandchildren knowing the journey they will be walking is a long and hard one. Rob was a special kind of man who was always willing to help everyone out and never asking for anything in return on April 6 I lost my only brother and friend. I know deep in my heart that God needed a special angel well he got himself one, keep watching over us and sit on Kathy's shoulder you will be forever in my heart.
RIP my brother and friend give Tom & Amanda a kiss for me.
