Franklin Joseph LaBiche, Jr. was born in Franklin, Louisiana on November 25, 1958 to the late Franklin, Sr. and Irma Landry LaBiche. He was retired from the Iberia Parish Government, and was an avid Saints fan. He had a strong faith, and an even stronger love for his family. He was a very dedicated, hard worker; even though he had Cerebral Palsy, he never let that stop him. He was an animal lover, and he loved to eat ~ especially Cajun cuisine and boiled crawfish! One of his greatest joys was playing Powerball, and he dreamed of hitting the jackpot so he could bless others. Franklin was a gentleman and a truly gentle man who will be deeply missed. 

Mr. LaBiche is survived by his loving wife of 42 years, Tammy Bourque LaBiche; siblings, Nathan LaBiche, Danny LaBiche (Colleen), Rachel Miller (Max), Joni Lavergne (Bryan), Tara LaBiche, Micah LaBiche, and Benji LaBiche; mother-in-law, Marylyn Bourque; sister-in-law Rachael Bourque Quebedeaux (Andy); brothers-in-law Jeff and Matt Bourque; and numerous nieces, nephews and extended family.

In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his father-in-law, Allen Bourque. 

Pallbearers will be Danny LaBiche, Micah LaBiche, Benji LaBiche, Kevin LaBiche, Matt Bourque and Jeff Bourque. 

Tammy would like to express her heartfelt appreciation to Rachael and Dr. Andy Quebedeaux, Marylyn Bourque, and all of Franklin's siblings for all of your love and support during this difficult time. You are truly all angels on earth.
