Scotty James Bourque was born in New Iberia, LA on October 22, 1968 to Gloria Camacho Bourque and Terry Paul Bourque, Sr. Scotty was a tinkerer; he loved taking things apart to see how they work. He was very mischievous; he was always joking around and picking on his sons and his nieces, Chelsea and Cydnie. Scotty thrived on teaching his sons new things, and they enjoyed learning from him. He loved fishing with Nathaniel and painting cars with Jeremiah. Scotty got very close to his nephews, Caleb and Jacob, through his illness. They played board games and video games, and enjoyed watching movies in Scottys bed. Scotty loved cars, motorbikes and dogs, but his passion was his family. He loved spending time with his granddaughter, and hunting with his daughter, brother and nephew, Zachary. He touched so many lives, and will be deeply missed.
Scotty is survived by his loving wife of 25 years, Roxann Duplantis Bourque; sons, Jeremiah Paul Bourque and Nathaniel James Bourque; daughter, Kayla Marie Bourque; granddaughter, Aries Raine Buteau; parents, Gloria and Terry Paul Bourque, Sr.; brother, Terry Paul Bourque, Jr. and wife Elaine; sister, Monique Bourque; all of New Iberia; nieces, Chelsea Payne and husband Eneus Payne, III of St. Martinville, and Cydnie Bourque of New Iberia; nephews, Cody Bourque and wife Amy of Broussard, Zachary Bourque, Caleb Romero and Jacob Romero, all of New Iberia; great-nephew, Kameron Coons of St. Martinville; and maternal grandmother, Celia Camacho of New Iberia.
