Norris "Jojo"

Laiche, Jr.

Norris "JoJo" Laiche, Jr. passed away peacefully on December 30, 2025, at his home in Paulina, Louisiana, surrounded by those who loved him most. He was 68 years old.

JoJo was the kind of man whose greatest joy came from being with his family. He was a devoted husband to his wife of 39 years, Fran Martin Laiche, and a proud, loving father to his son, Jeremy Laiche. His love was steady, quiet, and faithful — the kind that showed up every day and never wavered.

In addition to his immediate family, JoJo leaves behind his siblings, Gerrick "Ricky/Coon" Laiche (Cheryl) and Tammy Livingston, his in-laws Jerry Martin (Lisa), Tim Martin (Sylvia), Tina Martin Bourgeois (Kevin), Troy Martin (Melissa), along with his cherished Godson, Nevelle Laiche, nieces and nephews Shanon, Mindi(Laiche), Cody, Mindy(Bourgeois), Audrey, Nick, Shelbi, Adam, and Austin and many great nieces and nephews especially the caboose Hayes Louque.

JoJo's presence brought comfort, laughter, and a sense of home to those around him, and his memory will live on in the stories shared and the love he leaves behind.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Norris Laiche, Sr. and Dorris Laiche; his siblings, Gary and Gail Laiche; his in-laws, Jerrel "Joe" and Ethel Martin, his brother-in-law, Gary Livingston, and his nephew Jonathan Bourgeois all of whom he is now reunited with in eternal peace.
