Soulmate, mother, best friend and confidant. Linda Sonnier loved her family. She would love to spoil each of her grandbabies. Each of the grandchildren was very special in their own right.

Linda Sonnier is survived by her husband 38 years Rodney Sonnier of New Iberia; five children, Salina Beaugh of Abbeville, Veronica Ferry (Stephan) of Lafayette, Jason Sonnier (Angie), Tonya Dupre (Wayne Jr.) both of New Iberia and Heath Sonnier (Simone) of Houston, Texas; grandchildren Toby, Kauri, Nolan, Genna, Isabella, Alleigh, Tenleigh, Emleigh and Harper; one great-grandchild, Renleigh; brother Lester Fontenot Jr.; and numerous nieces and nephews.

She was preceded in death by her parents Lester Sr. and Adeline Abshire Fontenot; and two brothers, Toni Fontenot and Glenn Fontenot.

Honored to serve as pallbearers are friends and family.

The family would like to thank Hospice of Acadiana for the tremendous kindness and support they shared.
