Dr. Andre Lapierre Pardo, known more commonly by his pen name of Bob Lapierre, passed away on March 12, 2025 at the age of 73. He is survived by his mother, Monette Pardo, wife, children, grandchildren, members of the following families: Pardo, Lapierre, Hyppolite, Joseph, Elie, Ambroise, Jasmin, Laforet, Simonis, Heurtelou, Vilsaint, Fidelia, Moncoeur, Mentor, Peters, William, Lamande, Palanquet, Lamarre, Henry, Joseph, Zephyrin, Raymond, Dorelien, Montfleury, Bijoux, Leist, Baguidy, St. Cyr, Verdiner, Poux, Glaudin, Thomas, and all others impacted by this loss.

Andre received his Bachelor and Masters from SUNY Empire State College and Doctorate from Hawaii Pacific University. A natural born leader, Bob was a beloved and celebrated thespian, playwright, and producer. His passion for the arts, particularly theater, was reflected through his successful writing, performances, plays, and books. Andre was equally as enthusiastic about academia and gardening, but treasured his time with family the most. Andre was an icon that was highly respected and adulated in his community - his magnetic persona, charm, wit, and giving spirit will be greatly missed by all for years to come.

"One life on this earth is all that we get, whether it is enough or not enough, and the obvious conclusion would seem to be that at the very least we are fools if we do not live it as fully and bravely and beautifully as we can." - Frederick Buechner

"Theatre was my first love. I can't take the theatre out of me. And I wouldn't want to. To me, it's home." - Jim Parsons
