Lellia "Tammy" LeCorgne Ber Obituary - Visitation & Funeral Information

Lellia “Tammy” LeCorgne Ber of Madisonville, LA passed away on Sunday, September 27, 2020. She was born on March 8, 1948 in New Orleans, LA to the late Clyde St. Elmo LeCorgne and Ethel (Huff) LeCorgne. Tammy is survived by her loved and beloved husband Michael H. Ber; her children Jeff Ber (Michelle) and Anne Ber Morgan; and her three grandchildren Jim Ber, Stephen Ber, and Rylee Anne Morgan whom for Tammy, could have pushed their own little ladders to the moon and personally hung it there all by themselves. From painting across mediums, sewing her own clothing from a very young age to the most grand, yet simply elegant Mardi Gras Krew of Moslem gown, to crafts and gorgeous, fun keepsakes or décor, Tammy would find a way to create it and wow each of us once more. Adored for her humor, endless loving and giving nature, Tammy has been a bringer of Light to other’s journeys and in some cases, the inspiration and courage to keep living, fighting and stepping when life circumstances made these things otherwise hard to do. Tammy stood up in school, years ago and announced to her John McDonogh class that she was tired of people mispronouncing her name, Lellia and would now be dubbing herself “Tammy” ~ a name that those of us gifted with her love and compassion today will always be touched by as she brought a warmth to this world, her family and friend’s lives that obliterated rain clouds and lit some of the darkest night’s skies. During her time as a Southeastern Louisiana University student Tammy continued dance, honed in on classes related to home economics and would master her already innate talent and eye for detail that for a lifetime could transform any interior or exterior space to one of class, style, warmth and love. She made spaces and places simply feel like Home and will be missed with a gratitude and love that spans persons and lives all over the United States. Tammy has sewn love, friendship, incredible laughter, unmatched and endless kindnesses into the very fabric of everyone’s life she touched. All of us who have had the honor and privilege of her Light in our lives are a part of that fabric. In her early years, Tammy would practice and enjoy the art of dance from childhood and into her young adulthood. A true metaphor for the music that her love and presence brought to this world and many lives; a testament to Tammy’s LoveLight which is now a melody. A melody that forever remains. Relatives and friends are invited to attend a memorial service at E.J. Fielding Funeral Home, 2260 W 21st Ave, Covington, LA 70433 on Friday, October 2, 2020 at 11:00 AM with visitation on Friday beginning at 9:00 AM.
