Michael James Hebert, Sr.

August 23, 1932 - April 27, 2023

Michael James Hebert, Sr., 90, of Beaumont, left this life on Thursday, April 27, 2023, at home, to go live with his Lord and Master in Heaven. Mike was born on August 23, 1932, in Beaumont, to Mabel and Murray Hebert, of Beaumont.

His belief in Jesus Christ as His Lord and Savior gave him the assurance that he would live eternity at the feet of Jesus. That is blessed assurance.

Michael graduated from Beaumont High School and received a Bachelor of Science degree from Lamar University, which at that time was called Lamar State College. He retired from the Beaumont Dupont Plant after 38 years.

His two sons were the joy of his life. As they were growing up, the three of them enjoyed fishing in the Gulf of Mexico, camping out and handball at the YMCA. He referred to his daughters-in-law as blessings.

Mike was a member of Westgate Memorial Baptist Church and the Sojourner’s Sunday School Class. He enjoyed the Morning Prayer Breakfast at St. Mark’s Church.

He is survived by his wife of 47 years, Marilyn Terrell Hebert, who he called the love of his life; his two sons, Michael Hebert, Jr. of Kerrville and Scott Hebert of Sugarland, as well as their wives, Sandra Hebert and Janet Pierce Hebert; six grandchildren, Charlie Hebert and his wife, Emileigh of Katy; Katie and her husband, Brian Rike, of Richmond; Bailey Marie Hebert of Dallas; Kasi Hebert; Michael Hebert; and Matthew Hebert, all of Houston; great-grandchildren, Eivin, Merak Hebert, Lennox Hebert; Addison Rike, and Liam Rike; brother, Murray Hebert and his wife, Toni of Kerrville; and niece and nephews, Dr. Tracie and Dr. Michael George and their children, Isabelle and Abigail; and Jason Socier.

Mike is preceded in death by his parents, Mabel and Murray Hebert of Beaumont; sister, Oldire Hebert Socier; and brother-in-law, Eddie Socier.
