In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband, Joseph Theodore Broussard; a son Timothy James Broussard; a daughter Pam Broussard Mogerman and husband Michael; and two brothers James and Michael Conde.

Pallbearers were John George Broussard III, Michael Mogerman Jr., Quaid Broussard, Gage Broussard, Brandon Richardson and Skyler Bush.
