Michelle Bernard

A Celebration of Life for Michelle Bernard will be held on Tuesday, December 1, 2020 at the Lafond-Ardoin Chapel of Opelousas.  Visitation will be held from 9:00-11:00 am.

Michelle passed away in her home on Monday, November 23, 2020.  Known by her parents as their “Angel Unaware”, her innocent and loving soul touched the lives of all who knew her.  She was a hidden treasure and gift from God, able to draw out love, care, and compassion in everyone.  “Missy” will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved her.  We celebrate that her mind and body, once so restricted, are now set free into perfect paradise.

Michelle is survived by her two sisters, Tricia B. Disheroon of Opelousas, La and Rebecca Chelette of Denham Springs, La.

She was preceded in death by her mother Lou Bernard, her father Charles Bernard, her stepmother Lydia H. Bernard, and her brother Richard Tate.

We would like to express our sincere gratitude to her caregiver, Mary Curtius, for her excellent and loving care of Missy for the last several years of her life.

Pallbearers will include Edward Jenkins, Dylan Disheroon, and John Fontenot.

Family and friends are invited to sign and view the online guestbook at www.lafondardoin.com.

Lafond-Ardoin Funeral Home of Opelousas, 2845 S. Union Street, Opelousas, LA 70570 (337-942-2638) has been entrusted with the funeral arrangements.
