Joseph Philibert "JP" Major, Jr., 82 years old, beloved husband, father, grandfather, great grandfather and friend to many was called to be with his Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, on May 3, 2024, surrounded by his loving family. He entered this world on September 27, 1941, born to Joseph and Louise Major, in Ventress, LA. He was a faithful member of St. Isidore Catholic Church for many years.
