JAN PAUL FABRE

Jan Paul Fabre, born on September 7, 1956, passed away peacefully at his home on October 30, 2025. A lifelong resident of Berwick, Louisiana, Jan dedicated his life to the water, working as a boat captain for most of his career. He had a love for being on the water and fishing.
Jan loved everyone and helped anyone he came across. He never met a stranger and was always willing to lend a hand. He was known for having no filter and for always speaking his mind, and that honestly is what so many people loved most about him.
Jan was married to the love of his life, Angela LaJaunie Fabre, for 49 wonderful years. Together they built a beautiful family and a lifetime of memories. He is survived by his three children: Jessica Savoy and her husband Earlest, Rachel Fabre, and Justin Fabre and his wife Paula. His pride and joy were his grandchildren Hector Membreno III, Joshua Membreno, Emily Membreno, Kade Leger, Hayden Fabre, Elise Fabre, Justin Fabre Jr. (JJ), Kristalyn Duval, and Kason Marks.
He is also survived by his brother Richard Fabre and wife Judy, and sisters Sherry Moore and husband Art, and Lemina White and husband Bill. Jan’s lifelong best friends, Jimmy Aucoin and Ronald Faul were like brothers to him. He leaves behind a host of nieces, nephews, and friends who will forever cherish his memory.
Jan was preceded in death by his parents Elie Jr. and Zelda Fabre; his in-laws Herman Jr. and JoAnne LaJaunie; his sister-in-law Denise Gros; and his nephew, Johnny Fabre.
Jan will be remembered for the love he had for his family, his generous heart, humor, and the things he had to say, whether you wanted to hear it or not.
In accordance with his wishes, no funeral services will be held.
