Kent Broussard, a retired accountant in his mid-60s, fulfilled a lifelong dream by enrolling as a freshman at Louisiana State University (LSU) to join its famed Golden Band from Tigerland. His journey began in 1968 when he first saw the band perform as a child. Though he played the sousaphone in high school and college, life led him down a different path—career, family, and eventually retirement.
Broussard never let go of his dream, though. In 2023, he began training physically and musically, even marching through his neighborhood with a 30-pound sousaphone. He applied to LSU, auditioned, and earned a spot in the band. His debut during LSU’s 2025 football season opener drew national attention, with ESPN highlighting his story and the crowd at Tiger Stadium cheering as his image appeared on the jumbo screen.
Kent Broussard’s story reminds us that it’s never too late to chase what sets your soul on fire because, as Kent put it, "People retire, dreams don’t."

Choc is a 101-year-old Choctaw Indian and WWII veteran who served as a tank commander in pivotal battles like the Battle of the Bulge. He resides in an independent living facility and has been under the compassionate care of his Right at Home Northwest Oklahoma City caregiver, Susan Foster, since 2021. After the passing of his wife, Billie, in 2023, Choc embraced life with renewed energy. In December 2024, with Susan's unwavering support, Choc traveled to Belgium for the 80th Anniversary of the Battle of the Bulge. Their journey included parades, meetings with dignitaries, and visits to historical sites. Choc expressed his gratitude, saying, “My trip to Belgium would not have happened without the help from Susan. She was my constant caregiver and companion. If I looked over my shoulder, she was there to help and make sure I was not overdoing it.”

Susan reflected on the experience, “If it weren’t for Choc, I would never have been able to experience this trip of a lifetime. It is a privilege to care for him and listen to his amazing life stories." Their journey was truly unforgettable, from dining with the King and Queen of Belgium to visiting the Bastogne Barracks War Museum, where Choc autographed a tank. Choc’s legacy is a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made for our freedom, and it is an honor for Right at Home to be part of his incredible journey. Thank you, Susan, for embodying the Right at Home mission and making a profound difference in Choc’s life. 💙
