Services
The North Major Drive location operates as one of two Beaumont-area facilities in the Broussard's network, alongside the original McFaddin Avenue location established in 1958. The Major Drive facility serves families throughout the Beaumont metropolitan area with dedicated phone lines and email contact separate from other locations. The firm's dedicated crematorium facility—separate from the funeral home locations—provides a purpose-built environment for cremation committal services. This facility features interior gathering space with floral tribute display areas and professional staff in formal attire, designed to create ceremonial dignity comparable to cemetery graveside services.
Broussard's structures its cremation services to mirror traditional burial rituals, allowing families to process to the crematorium as others would to a cemetery. This approach addresses families who seek the ceremonial closure of a committal service while choosing cremation.
Broussard's Mortuary traces its origins to the late 1800s when Alex Broussard, owner of A. Broussard Livery Stable, opened his first funeral parlor in Southeast Texas. The original wood-framed facility gave way to a brick building in downtown Beaumont that still stands today. The family firm later relocated to a stately home at Calder Avenue and Forest Street before establishing its present location on McFaddin Avenue in 1958.
The Major Drive location at 1605 N. Major Drive serves families in Beaumont and surrounding communities. Throughout more than 125 years of operation, the Broussard family has maintained independent ownership while corporate consolidation reshaped the funeral industry. The firm emphasizes affordability alongside service standards, positioning itself as an alternative to chain-owned competitors.
The operation spans six locations across Southeast Texas, with the Major Drive facility maintaining its own distinct identity and service capabilities within the family network.
