Judge Ted R. Broyles, age 92, was born on April 21, 1927 and was called home on August 9, 2019 while in Byrd Hospital. Judge Broyles attended Centenary College in Shreveport and LSU Law school.

Upon retirement, he served an additional 10 years throughout Central and Southwest Louisiana as Judge Ad Hoc. He served as Boy Scout Master for many years, summer league baseball coach, taught 8th grade Sunday School, and was a deacon for many years.

He loved his family and his Savior, the Lord Jesus.

Pallbearers will be Clint Skinner, Steve Broyles, Charles Owen, Jeff Skidmore, Bill Broyles, and Dr. Mike Broyles. Honorary pallbearers will be Allen Broyles, Judge William Bennett, John Howard, Larry Sadoski, T. Berry Porter, Bill Tilley, Billy Lewis, Donnie Perkins, James Hagan, and Robert Tucker.
