Born and raised in Rayne, Bully was a life long participant and supporter of 4-H programs, especially the livestock shows. Whether it was cattle, sheep or goats, he was easy to find in and around his beloved farm in Link or sale barns across South Louisiana. He was a farmer and rancher and a 27 year veteran of USDA/APHIS as an Animal Health Technician. Known for his easy going style and generosity, many have turned to him for advice over the years regarding their livestock operations or 4-H projects. He was a loving husband, father and grandfather and especially loved spending time with his family on the farm. Daddy was simple, direct, hardworking, and very generous with his time and knowledge. He had a no nonsense approach to life and was not shy about letting you know where you stood with him. He was a throwback to simpler times and often joked he was born in the wrong century as he was a cowboy at heart. We will miss him dearly.
