Jo Nel Broussard Fairchild

December 17, 1957 — June 19, 2021

Erath—Memorial services will be held at 1:00 PM on Wednesday, June 23, 2021 at Our Lady of Lourdes Roman Catholic Church in Erath, honoring the life of Jo Nel Broussard Fairchild, 63, who died Saturday, June 19, 2021 at her residence in Erath surrounded by her family.

Jo Nel Broussard Fairchild was born in Port Arthur, Texas, on December 17, 1957. Jo was a 1976 graduate of Abbeville High School in Abbeville, Louisiana. She married Marvin Scott Fairchild on August 8, 1981, thus beginning the great love of her life.  On August 3, 1982, their only child, a daughter named Linda Marie Fairchild, was born.

Jo was a caring and devoted wife, mother, and friend. This obituary does not convey her joy for life. Jo never wavered in her strength or faith. She greeted everyone (and every animal) with a smile.

Jo’s family was her lifeline. She is survived by her husband and daughter, along with her dog Bentley and grand-dog Duckie.  Jo’s surviving siblings are Jude Martin Broussard (husband of Cheryl Broussard), Vicki Jean Baudoin (wife of Teddy Baudoin), and Mathew Claude Broussard (husband of Valerie Broussard).

Surviving nieces and nephews include Barry and Toby Broussard, Miranda Baudoin, Matthew, Madeline, Micaiah, and Gracen Broussard, and Molly Moreland.  Jo leaves behind so many friendships that she cherished.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Mary Audrey Martin Broussard and Joseph Nelson Broussard.  Jo named her daughter after her late sister, Lynda Marie Broussard, who died when Jo was a child and was forever missed by their family.

In lieu of flowers, the family wishes for donations to Animal Aid of Acadiana, 142 Le Medicin Rd., Carencro, LA 70520 or to Hospice of Acadiana, 2600 Johnston St.
Lafayette, LA 70503.

The family wishes to thank the staff of the UHC Oncology Clinic, especially Yolanda and Lisa. The offices of Dr. Joni Orazio, Dr. Dana Dicharry, Johnny Gachassin, and Anisa Al-Jabi were instrumental in caring for Jo through her illnesses. Hospice of Acadiana was indispensable to Jo and her family, especially Whitney, Stephanie, Laura, and Thirsten.
