Neil

Sanchez

Neil Sanchez, 57, of Lutcher, Louisiana, passed away at his home surrounded by family on November 2, 2023 after an 18 month long battle with cancer. Neil will be remembered for his joyful spirit, even in the midst of his battle, his inability to be anything other than kind, gentle, generous, and above all else hungry; for life and Louisiana seafood.

Neil was born on August 11, 1966, and spent the last 30+ years of his life in Lutcher, Louisiana. He dedicated over 20 years of his career to River Parish Contractors in Reserve, LA where he leaves behind countless friends and cherished colleagues.

He enjoyed crabbing, fishing, traveling, and spending time with family and friends. Neil's love for life was contagious, and he always made sure to surround himself with those he loved.

Neil is survived by his loving wife, Bobbi Sanchez, his sister Marilyn Summerhalter (Don), brother-in-law Terry Jenkins, niece and godchild Sarah Shinpoch (Alex), nephews Daniel Babin (Amanda), Mark Babin (Stephanie), great niece Emma Babin, bonus children Amanda Lear (Jamie), Joshua "Buddy" Kirkland (Aleshia), bonus grandchildren Vance and Camren Lear, Chevy and Mason Kirkland, as well as numerous aunts, uncles, and cousins. He was preceded in death by his sisters, Kathryn Sanchez, Cindy Jenkins, mother Emily Sanchez, and father Henry Sanchez.

A ceremony to celebrate Neil's life will be held on Saturday, November 11, 2023 at Bridgepoint Church, 202 E. Main St. in Gramercy. Visitation will begin at 1 pm, followed by the service at 2 pm.

Neil will be deeply missed by all who had the pleasure of knowing him. His memory will forever live on in the hearts of his loved ones.

The family would like to express their deepest gratitude to Christy Beard, Tamra Yuratich, and Modern Hospice for their compassionate care giving.
