Jonathan Paul

Bourgeois

Jonathan Paul Bourgeois, a self-made business owner and lifelong resident of Paulina, Louisiana passed away on Tuesday, August 17, 2021 at the age of 39.   Jonathan will always be remembered for his zest for life, ice blue eyes, infectious smile, and charming personality.

Jonathan was born on December 23, 1981 and is survived by his daughter, Kye Bourgeois, the greatest love of his life, and his parents, Kevin and Tina Martin Bourgeois of Paulina. He will be greatly missed by his siblings Mindy Bourgeois Louque (Marty) and Nicholas Bourgeois (Wryn), and niece and nephews: Gia, Wes and Hayes Louque along with his maternal grandmother, Beverly Richard Bourgeois.  Jonathan was beloved by his godparents, Fran Martin Laiche and Chad Bourgeois and was blessed to serve as a godparent to Austin Martin, Preslei Roussel, and Hayes Louque where he never missed a chance to spoil them.

Loved and admired by so many, Jonathan leaves behind a host of aunts, uncles, cousins, friends, and extended trucking family.

He is preceded in death by his paternal grandfather, Ferrel Bourgeois and his maternal grandparents, Jerrel "Joe" and Ethel Brignac Martin.

Jonathan's kindness and ability to live life to the fullest, enriched all who knew him and even those who didn't!  He never met a stranger and would go out of his way to make people smile.  Jonathan was the owner of a successful trucking company, JPB Trucking and considered his fellow drivers and clients family.   His happiest place even from a young age was behind the wheel of anything that went fast from his lime green Peterbilt, to his Harley Davidson, or his STV race boat, to his four-wheeler or dirt bike.

Jonathan, you may be gone, but you'll never be forgotten.

A visitation will be held at Rose Lynn Funeral Home in Lutcher, LA on Saturday, August 21, 2021 from 7:30 AM to 11:30 AM.  A Mass of Christian Burial will follow at NOON at St. Joseph Catholic Church in Paulina, LA.  Interment will take place in St. Joseph Cemetery.  In lieu of flowers donations can be made to Trinity Outdoors Disabled Adventures or the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation in Jonathan's honor.
