Gerald Little Obituary

Gerald "Tiger" Little went to be with his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ on May 10, 2020. Gerald was born on April 14, 1935 to Sidney and Margaret Lambert Little. He is survived by his wife of 66 years, Juanita Lambert Little, who was smitten by his beautiful blue eyes and his love for singing country music and playing the steel guitar. Together they raised their six children in Saint Amant, LA. Their devotion to each other was a constant, and Juanita cared for him through his last days. He is survived by his wife, Juanita; daughter, Cynthia Little Fife (Wayne); sons, Randall Little (Maggie), Dale Little (Stacey), Brad Little (Dana), and David Little; and his loving grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Gerald had a joyous reunion with his youngest son, Dwayne Little, in heaven. He is also preceded in death by his parents, Sidney and Margaret Lambert Little; brother, Sidney Little, Jr. (Geneva); and sisters-in-law and brothers-in-law. A private service was held on Wednesday, May 13, 2020, at Ascension Funeral Home in Gonzales, LA, with entombment at Hope Haven Garden of Memory, in Gonzales, LA.

To my cousin's and Aunt Juanita. It is with great dislike that we could be together to share memories and stories during this time. One memory I would like to share is when dad was in the hospital before he passed away. I had called Aunt Junita to ask if they could come by to finish him. I know it was hard for Uncle Gerald to do so but they came to see him. Dad had been in a state of seclusion and not responding to any one. I was at the foot of the bed when they walked in the room as Aunt Juanita was in the lead. Dad opened his eyes and came completely out if the bed to great them because he thought mom had walked in the room and then he seen Uncle Gerald and it was someone had found there long lost friend. I would only guess at the friendship the two of them had over the years but I know they shared a bond that most people could only hope for. It was a special moment Inwill never forget, I think of it about every day. I thank you Aunt Juunita for that moment.
