Lawson Hebert Obituary

Lawson Hebert was granted his angel wings at 7 months old on Saturday, January 26, 2013 following a lifelong illness. He peacefully passed away in the loving arms of his family at Our Lady of the Lake Hospital. His final days were spent surrounded by family and friends. His life may have been short, but he experienced more than most do in a lifetime. Although he was so weak physically, he astonished us with his ability to fight on. He loved listening to and looking at his favorite seahorse named "Oliver". He gave the best kisses with his sweet puckered lips. He touched so many lives in his very short time, but the quality of his life far exceeded the quantity of the life he lived. His gentle smile could melt the hearts of everyone around him. Visitation will be held at Greenoaks Funeral Home, 9595 Florida Blvd on Monday, January 28, 2013 from 5pm to 9pm and on Tuesday, January 29, 2013 from 10am until service time at 12pm. Burial will be in Greenoaks Memorial Park. He is survived by his parents Kyle and Mindy Hebert; grandparents Robert Hebert and fiance' Kathe Allen, Lisa and Terry Hester, and Curtis and Carolyn Landry; great grandparents, Junior and Theresa Price, Shirley Shaffer, Lindel and Edith Hester, Ansel and Mildred New, and Diane Martin; aunts and uncles, Lisa Kirby and husband Chris, Tracy Harris and husband Danny, Robert Hebert, Jr and wife Layla, Scott Hester, and Victoria Hebert; cousins, Jackson and Raleigh Hebert and Henri Hebert, Olivia Harris and Magnolia Kirby; his extended family, Rico and Brandy Melancon and family, Karl and Brittany Romig and family, Scott and Kallie Alexander and family and Lauren Allen. He is preceded in death by his great grandparents, Jesse Shaffer, Jr and Dudley and Estelle Landry and aunt, Whitney Nicole Hebert. Pallbearers will be Robert Hebert, Jr, Chris Kirby, Danny Harris and Matthew Englade. Honorary pallbearer will be Scott Hester. In lieu of flowers donations can be made to www.theGFPD.org. Condolences can be made at www.greenoaksfunerals.com.

I cannot express enough sympathy in the loss of little Lawson. My family and I have been continuously praying for Lawson, Kyle, & Mindy. Lawson was a special gift from God, so special, that God could only lone him out for a short time, & in that short time he had here on earth he touched so many lives. Kyle and Mindy helped to make that possible by loving that precious little boy as much as they did, for being as strong as they are, and for having as much faith as they do. May God provide them the strength to get through this incredibly difficult time.
