He was a remarkable man who lived life to the fullest and left an indelible mark on the hearts of all who knew him.

Born on October 1, 1976, in St. Martinville, Tony grew up with an adventurous spirit and a zest for life that would become his defining characteristic. From an early age, he displayed an unwavering determination and a strong work ethic that would guide him throughout his life.

Tony embarked on a career as a truck driver and dedicated most of his adult life to this profession. He navigated countless roads and braved challenging terrains to deliver goods across the country. Always committed to his work, Tony earned the respect of his colleagues and made lifelong friendships along the way. Regrettably, declining health forced him to retire prematurely from the career he loved so dearly.

A man with an infectious laugh and a heart full of love and care, Tony had a great personality that could light up any room. He possessed a unique ability to bring joy to those around him effortlessly. His quick wit and sense of humor were legendary; he had an uncanny knack for finding humor in the simplest of things and filled every room with laughter.

When not behind the wheel or spending time with his loved ones, Tony pursued his hobbies with equal gusto. Riding his motorcycle was one of his greatest passions; he could often be found on open roads, feeling the wind against his face as he embraced the freedom of the ride. Another profound love in Tony's life was music - it was truly therapeutic for him. Whether he was listening to soulful melodies or blaring music at full volume, it brought him immense joy and solace.

In honoring Tony's memory, it is important to remember the impact he had on the people around him. As a son, he brought immense pride and joy to his parents. As a father, he was a pillar of support and a constant source of love for his children. As a brother, he was a confidant and a friend. This remarkable man touched the lives of countless individuals and will be deeply missed by all who were fortunate enough to have known him.  

He is survived by his children, Millie Jane (Jennifer) Seymour, Koby (Baylee Girard) Berthelot, Kyle Olson, and Sammy Coleman; parents, Kirk Anthony and Jackie Talley Broussard, Sr.; grandchildren, Kyler, Charlie, and Graysen Jude, who is due in August; sisters, Antoinette (David) Rabenaldt, Katie (Dixilyn) Santiny, Alyson (Chase Champagne) Broussard, and Tina Douet; and the apple of his eye, his niece Brenlyn (Sweetie).

He is preceded in death by his maternal grandparents, Clovis and Laura Talley; paternal grandparents, Potsy and Millie Thomas Broussard; aunt, Joan Courville; uncles, Gerald Talley, Louis Talley, Elton Broussard, Paul Broussard, and Ernie Dugan; and his special friend, Tina Broussard.
