Cheryl Leigh Fontenot
7/28/1965 – 10/26/2024
Cheryl Fontenot was called home into the arms of Jesus on Saturday, October 26, 2024. She
leaves behind her loving husband Donald; four children, Brandon Fontenot & Stacy, Blake
Fontenot, Bradley Fontenot, and Ashleigh Clark & Eric; mother Jane; and a legacy of
grandchildren. She is preceded in death by her father, Franklin Penna; son Brian; sister
Cynthia; and brother Gregory.
The world is simply a better place because Cheryl was in it. She made the good days great and
the bad days better. Sharing all that she had with anyone in need, she was the most selfless
person to all. She joyfully loved Jesus with her whole heart, and was happy to tell everyone
about all the ways that God had provided, to point them to her sweet Savior. She selflessly
poured herself into her husband, children, grandchildren, friends, family and church family.
Cheryl will be deeply missed by many and welcomed with celebration by Jesus. A Celebration
of Life service will be held for her on Saturday, November 2, at 10:00am at First Moss Bluff
Church. Her visitation will be Friday, November 1, from 4-8pm at Heritage Funeral Home.
Interment will be at Hebert Cemetery. Rev. E.J. McCann will officiate.
