Paul Stephen (Tank) Berthier, 70, resident of Glynn, Louisiana, native of New Roads, Louisiana was taken home peacefully by angels on February 18 2025.

He was preceded in death by parents, Una and Pat Berthier, sister Pat Springstead, and brother Louis Berthier. Paul is survived by his wife of 44 years, Becki; his daughter, Story; sister Colette Jewell (husband Dan); brother Michael Berthier (wife Kris); Millie Smith; as well as Kerry Callegan, his dear friend of 55 years and long-time friend Joanna Wurtele.
