Betty “BeBe” Joan Hebert

Betty “BeBe” Hebert, 67, passed away peacefully on August 24, 2026. She was born on November 12, 1958, to the late Oneita Holden and Moses Holden.
Betty was the beloved wife of 43 years to Troy Hebert, a proud mother to her sons, Joshua Hebert and his wife, Molly, and Paul Hebert and his wife, Dianna; and a cherished Mawmaw to her beloved grandchildren, Preston, Dawson, Jett, and Sadie. She also leaves behind multiple dedicated sisters; Sharron Hall (O’quin), Charlette James, Brenda Holden, Mosetta Holden, Denise “Big Twin” Deangelis (Joseph), and Jeanice “Little Twin” Kirkbride, her three grand dogs, and countless friends and loved ones whose lives were forever touched by her.
She was greeted at Heaven’s Gate by her parents Moses and Oneita Holden, and her sister Charlene Temple.
There are few words that can truly describe a woman like Betty. She was one of the most God-fearing, kind, loving, selfless, and accepting people you could ever meet. Her faith was not simply something she believed, it was something she lived every day. She found joy in unconditionally loving her grandchildren and in sharing the love of Jesus with everyone she encountered.
Betty had a heart for every living thing. She had a special gift for finding the lost, lonely, and forgotten animals that were forever wandering onto her porch and giving them a place to feel loved and safe. No creature was too small, too broken, or too unwanted to receive her kindness. She was a pastor’s wife, a listening ear, a Waffle House enthusiast, and the person who could somehow make every moment feel a little more special. She spent countless hours throughout the year preparing for the church Christmas play, pouring her time, creativity, and heart into something she loved so deeply. But above all else, Betty was a proud Mama and Mawmaw. Her family was her greatest joy, and the love she gave them will continue to live on through every generation that follows her.
Betty was everything any one of us could ever hope to be: faithful, compassionate, selfless, joyful, and endlessly loving. She made this world a better place simply by being in it. Though her absence leaves an immeasurable emptiness in the hearts of those who loved her, her legacy of faith, kindness, and unconditional love will never be forgotten. She loved deeply, gave freely, welcomed everyone with open arms, and pointed countless hearts toward Jesus.
Betty will be deeply missed and forever loved.

Joseph Michael "Mike" Pizzuto

It is with deep love and profound sadness that the family of Joseph Michael "Mike" Pizzuto announces that he went home to his Lord and Savior on July 22, 2026, at the age of 57, after a courageous six-year battle with cancer. Though he was initially given only months to live, Mike surpassed those expectations by years, giving his family and loved ones precious time filled with memories, love, and moments they will forever cherish. He passed away peacefully at home, surrounded by his loving family.
Born on March 14, 1969, Mike was the beloved son of Joseph Anthony Pizzuto Jr. and Irma Campo Pizzuto and brother of JoAnn Pizzuto Smith. He was a devoted husband to his beloved wife, Cherie Jones Pizzuto, with whom he shared 38 years of love and life, including 33 years of marriage. Together, they built a life and raised four children: Kyle Michael Pizzuto, Kade Michael Pizzuto, Kole Michael Pizzuto, and Krista Grace Pizzuto. He was also a beloved father-in-law to Naomi Strobush Pizzuto and, more recently, became "Papa Mike" to his granddaughter, Selah Jane Pizzuto, a new role that brought him so much joy.
Mike's love of the outdoors and his connection to family were woven throughout his life. He spent many memorable days on Delacroix Island, where he loved helping at his grandfather's boat launch and learning the ropes of fishing and sh*****ng. Those experiences became part of the memories and stories that helped shape the man he became.
Throughout his career, Mike worked in several industries, including Textron, Trinity Yachts, and the Chalmette Refinery. He approached each role with dedication and a strong work ethic, earning the respect of those who worked alongside him.
Mike lived a life marked by an unwavering faith in Jesus Christ, deep devotion to his family, and a genuine love for others. His faith was the foundation of his life and gave him strength throughout the many trials he faced during his illness.
Mike was a man with a true servant's heart. He displayed his faith through serving others with willing hands, a generous heart, and a genuine desire to help whenever a need arose. Mike served his church and community in many ways, from coaching and participating in service projects to simply being there whenever someone needed a helping hand. He was always willing to lend his time, his talents, and his strength to help others, never seeking recognition, but simply because it was who he was.
Of all the titles Mike held, being "Dad" was one he cherished most. He took a sincere interest in whatever his children loved, often making their hobbies his own simply so he could spend more time with them. Whether fishing, enjoying sports, spending time outdoors, playing games, spending time at the shooting range, boiling shrimp and crawfish, or grilling oysters, Mike found joy in being present with his children and creating memories that will last a lifetime.
Mike had the biggest heart and a remarkable ability to make people feel like lifelong friends. Many of his friends affectionately called him "Brother," a reflection of the deep bonds he formed with the people he loved. He was known for his quick wit, contagious laughter, and wonderful sense of humor, often striking up conversations wherever he went. His genuine kindness, generosity, and ability to make others feel valued touched countless lives. He was deeply devoted to his family and friends, and his spirit will live on in the hearts of everyone who was blessed to know him.
He was preceded in death by his paternal grandparents, Joseph Anthony Pizzuto Sr. and Bernice Robino; his maternal grandparents, Richard and Nora Campo; and his uncles, Allan Campo of Delacroix Island and Alfred "BeBum" Pizzuto.
The family finds comfort in knowing that after his courageous battle, Mike is now healed and at peace. His love, laughter, faith, generosity, and the countless memories he created with those he loved will remain forever in the hearts of all who knew him.
Visitation will begin at 1:00 p.m., followed by a celebration of Mike's life at 2:00 p.m. on Wednesday, July 29, 2026, at First Baptist Church Slidell, 4141 Pontchartrain Drive, Slidell, Louisiana. Family and friends are invited to gather in remembrance and to celebrate the life of a man whose love, laughter, faith, and generosity left an enduring mark on everyone who knew him.
In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests that donations be made in honor of Mike to the First Baptist Church Building Fund.
